Patent number: 10813603Abstract: A couch panel for a patient couch for a medical imaging method is disclosed. The couch panel is of single-shell design, beads are formed in the longitudinal direction of the couch panel, wherein the number and the shape of the beads are chosen such that the couch panel has a predefinable geometric moment of inertia. The two longitudinally extending edges of the couch panel are bent upward. This is advantageous because of the cost-effective production of a couch panel and, in the case of X-ray imaging, in the low radiation absorption. A patient couch having a couch panel of this kind is likewise disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2015Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Franz Dirauf, Michael Grasruck, Alexander Krämer, Riccardo Kunze, Otto Sembritzki
