Abstract: A flat top radiographic table includes a pair of longitudinal frame members which grip a thin panel at opposite ends thereof. The longitudinal frame members grip the thin panel at its bottom and side edges only, with the panel being free of support of the frame members at the panel top. The table top is thereby made coplanar to simplify transfer of a patient to and from the table. The frame members preferably grip the panel via a pair of projections which mate with a pair of recesses on the side edges and bottom of the thin panel.
