  • Patent number: 11530995
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a Mobile Fluoroscopic Device consisting of a Mini-C Arm assembly containing a stepless collimating apparatus which is adjustable using pairs of linear translating, opaque to x-ray plates (2). Each pair of plates are operated by a drive mechanism including a motor (3), gears (4, 6), and racks (5) making it possible to increase or decrease the cross-sectional area of the x-ray beam relative to the x-ray sensor surface area.

  • Patent number: 10178978
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a mobile fluoroscopic imaging system, and methods of use. A table top imaging system can include a support, an x-ray source carried by the support, an x-ray detector carried by the support and positionable at a distance from the source; a primary x-ray propagation axis extending between the source and the detector. The distance between the source and the detector can be adjustable along the axis, and the axis can be angularly adjustable throughout an angular range.

  • Patent number: 9398675
    Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment, an imaging apparatus comprises an arm assembly coupled to an imaging arm. The arm assembly includes a shoulder joint, an elbow joint, and an articulation assembly. The shoulder joint is configured to travel a vertical distance in a substantially linear fashion and provide rotational movement. The imaging arm comprises a first end and a second end. As such, the imaging apparatus is configured to provide radial motion along a path equal to the length of the arm assembly and the imaging arm along the vertical distance and the horizontal distance of the shoulder joint. The imaging apparatus may also comprise a movable cabinet, a monitor, and a control, with the arm assembly coupled to the movable cabinet. Furthermore, the imaging arm may comprise an x-ray source and a sensor, with the monitor displaying data detected by the sensor.
