Abstract
A patient positioning table has a base part with a longitudinal axis and a support plate for positioning a patient. The support plate can be displaced in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the base part relative to the base part. The support plate is provided with a device that can interact with an acceptance device of the base part such that the support plate can be rotated relative to the base part after acceptance of the device of the support plate into the acceptance device of the base part of the support plate. The patient positioning table is suitable for a computed tomography apparatus.
