A radiolucent surgical table extension assembly for use in combination with a scanning machine having an enclosed scanning zone. A radiolucent support member (28) has a proximal end (230) adapted to be removably attached to one end (47) of a table (22) in a cantilever fashion. The radiolucent support member has a rigidity sufficient to support an upper torso and head of a patient. The table and the radiolucent support member are movable relative to the scanning machine to locate the radiolucent support member and the head of the patient within the scanning zone. A radiolucent mounting structure (277) is connected to the radiolucent support member, and a radiolucent head support (280) is attached to the radiolucent mounting structure for supporting the head of the patient. The radiolucent head support has an opening (364, 366, 368) extending therethrough. The opening receives a locking clamp (362, 364) for attaching the radiolucent head support to the radiolucent mounting structure.

Cette invention concerne une rallonge radiotransparente de table d'opération s'utilisant conjointement avec un scannographe à enceinte de balayage. Un élément-support radiotransparent (28) comporte une extrémité proximale (230) fixée amovible, en porte-à-faux, à une extrémité (47) d'une table (22). L'élément-support radiotransparent est suffisamment rigide pour supporter la partie supérieure du torse et la tête du patient. Le déplacement de la table et de l'élément-support radiotransparent permet d'amener ledit élément-support et la tête du patient dans l'enveloppe de balayage. Une structure de montage radiotransparente (277)est reliée à l'élément-support radiotransparent. De même un support de tête radiotransparent (280), qui est fixé sur la structure de montage radiotransparente, maintient la tête du patient. Ce support de tête présente une ouverture traversante (364, 366, 368). Cette ouverture reçoit une bride (362, 364) pour le montage du support de tête radiotransparent sur la structure de montage radiotransparente.
