Robotic device and method for trauma patient diagnosis and therapy

摘要

A medical treatment suite and method of use is described, having a projection X-ray apparatus mounted to a robot. The robot positions the projection X-ray apparatus with respect to a patient and data is taken in a form that is suitable for synthesizing computed tomographic images. The patient may be supported by a patient support apparatus, which may be mounted to another robot, which cooperates with the other robot so as to position the patient according to a selected treatment protocol. Each of the robots may be mounted to one of a floor, a ceiling or a wall of the room.
