Abstract: A device for supporting a patient during a radiological imaging procedure is disclosed. The device includes a base, a support member pivotally coupled to the base and configured to receive a portion of the patient undergoing the radiological imaging procedure and an adjustment device comprising an inflatable bladder. The inflatable bladder has a first portion acting on the base and a second portion acting on the support member. An inflatable state of the adjustment device is controllable to selectively adjust an angular positioning of the support member relative to the base.

Abstract: Systems and methods generate user interfaces using a description of a business ontology and a pattern language describing a layout for business objects in the business ontology. The layout description is analyzed and code may be generated to produce the output layout according to the layout description. One aspect of the system and methods includes generating HTML code. A further aspect of the system and methods includes generating Java Swing code. A still further aspect of the systems and methods includes generating user interface code for a desktop application. The layout description may describe a layout in a manner that is display device independent, and that does not rely on absolute positioning of elements. Business object data and fields within a business object may be positioned relative to one another and may further be positioned based on the order in the layout description.
