Abstract

An X-ray tube and receptor are held on opposite ends of a two-limbed carriage mounted on a sliding arm. The arm is carried on a rotating support, the arm extending parallel to the rotational axis of the support. The two-limbed carriage pivots on the arm about a second axis perpendicular to the rotational axis and to a radiation axis extending between the X-ray tube and receptor.
