Abstract
A panel segment is provided for a multipart patient supporting panel, with a radiotransparent support panel and at least one electrical connecting line, which extends at least over a partial region of the support panel. In order that the connecting lines cannot be seen as troublesome shading on x-ray images, the at least one connecting line is configured as a strip conductor that is disposed in a recess in the support panel. A patient supporting panel and an operating table with such a panel segment are also provided.
Description
- This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) to European application number 06 021 191.9, filed on Oct. 10, 2006.
- The present invention is directed to a panel segment for a multipart patient supporting panel, the panel segment comprising a radiotransparent support panel and at least one electrical connecting line, which extends at least over a partial region of the support panel. The invention is also directed to a patient supporting panel for supporting a patient, with a number of panel segments that are pivotable in relation to one another, as well as to an operating table with a support column, which supports such a patient supporting panel.
- Patient supporting panels serve for supporting a patient, in particular during medical treatments and examinations, for example during the examination of a patient by means of x-rays. The patient supporting panel is in this case of a multipart form and comprises a number of panel segments which are pivotable in relation to one another in a motorized manner. The panel segments can, for example, be pivoted about pivot axes aligned transversely in relation to the longitudinal axis of the patient supporting panel. Electric motors that are connected to electrical connecting lines, namely signal and supply lines, are used for adjusting the panel segments. The panel segments comprise a support panel, which is formed such that it is transparent to x-rays. At least one panel segment additionally has at least one electrical connecting line, which extends at least over a partial region of the support panel. In an x-ray examination, the connecting lines get in the way of the path of the x-rays. This leads to troublesome shading on the x-ray images.
- The present disclosure features a panel segment in which the at least one connecting line is configured as a strip conductor that is disposed in a recess in the support panel, so that the connecting line(s) cannot be seen as troublesome shading on x-ray images.
- The inventors have found that troublesome shading on x-ray images caused by electrical connecting lines can be avoided by the attenuation of the x-rays that is caused by the at least one conductor configured in strip form differing only slightly from the attenuation that is caused in any case by the support panel. The conductor is therefore of a very thin but at the same time relatively wide form, so that the cross section of the conductor corresponds at least to the otherwise required cable cross section of a connecting line configured in the form of an electric cable. On account of the configuration in strip form, the shading in the x-ray image that is caused by the conductor either cannot be seen at all or at least cannot be seen in a troublesome form.
- The panel segment disclosed herein is distinguished by an attenuation of the x-rays that remains virtually the same over the entire region of the support panel. The material of the support panel usually has a relatively low attenuation for x-rays. In order to compensate for the slightly greater attenuation that the x-rays experience through the conductor, the conductor is disposed in a recess in the support panel, i.e. the support panel has a lesser material thickness at the level of the conductor than in a region in which no conductor is disposed. The influence of the conductor on the attenuation of the x-rays can consequently be compensated by choice of the depth of the recess and the thickness, i.e. the material thickness, of the conductor.
- It is of advantage if the thickness, i.e. the material thickness, of the conductor and the depth of the recess are chosen such that x-rays that penetrate the panel segment at the level of the conductor undergo the same effective attenuation as x-rays that penetrate the panel segment laterally alongside the conductor. In the case of such a configuration, the influence of the conductor on the attenuation of the x-rays is completely compensated, so that no shading caused by the conductors can be seen on an x-ray image.
- The at least one conductor is preferably produced from a metal, in particular from a metal with a low x-ray attenuation coefficient, for example from an aluminum material. Metal is distinguished by high electrical conductivity, so that electrical signals and electrical energy to be supplied to an electric motor can be effectively transmitted over the conductor. If a metal with a low x-ray attenuation coefficient is used, the conductor can be of a relatively thick configuration, without this leading to any significant shading on an x-ray image. Conductors of aluminum have proven to be particularly advantageous.
- In the case of a preferred embodiment, the thickness of the at least one conductor is at most 0.5 mm. In particular, it may be provided that the thickness of the at least one conductor is about 0.1 mm.
- In the case of a preferred embodiment, the width of the at least one conductor is a multiple of its thickness, in particular at least ten times, for example fifty to one hundred times, its thickness. A great width has the advantage that the conductor can have a great cross section, so that electrical signals and electrical supply energy can be transmitted with only very small losses.
- The support panel is preferably produced from a plastics material, in particular from a fiber-reinforced plastics material. It may, for example, be provided that the support panel is produced from a plastics material reinforced by means of cellulose fibers. So, for example, a plastics material based on thermocuring resins that is homogeneously reinforced with cellulose fibers may be used.
- It is advantageous if the panel segment has a number of strip conductors that are disposed alongside one another and do not overlap one another. Disposing the conductors in such a way that they do not overlap ensures in a structurally simple manner that x-rays that pass through the panel segment experience an attenuation that remains the same as much as possible. However, it is also possible in principle to dispose a number of conductors such that they overlap one another. It is then advantageous to choose the material thickness of the support panel to be particularly small in the region of overlap of the conductors, so that the greater attenuation that the x-rays experience in the region of overlap of the conductors is compensated by a particularly low attenuation in the region of the support panel above and/or below the region of overlap.
- In the case of a particularly preferred configuration of the panel segment, the attenuation of x-rays that penetrate the panel segment in the region between two conductors is just as great as the attenuation that the x-rays experience when they penetrate the panel segment at the level of a conductor. This can be achieved for example by a material that is not electrically conductive but attenuates x-rays to the same degree as the conductors being disposed in the region between two conductors. Alternatively, it may be provided that the support panel has a greater thickness (material thickness) in the region between two conductors than in the region of the conductors.
- In the case of an advantageous embodiment, the conductors are disposed alongside one another with edges aligned with one another. This makes it possible to dispense with a material between the conductors that attenuates the x-rays to the same degree as the conductors. Rather, the conductors as a whole form a surface area of constant thickness, so that the x-rays experience a constant attenuation over the region of the conductors.
- The conductors are preferably disposed in different planes. For example, it may be provided that at least one conductor is disposed in a first plane and at least one second conductor is disposed in a second plane. Adjacent conductors are aligned with their mutually facing edges aligned with one another and are each disposed in a recess in the support panel.
- It is advantageous if the support panel is configured as a multilayer panel, at least two layers having recesses in each of which a conductor is disposed. The support panel may, for example, comprise an upper support panel layer and a lower support panel layer, the upper support panel layer having recesses on the underside and the lower support panel layer having recesses on the upper side and a conductor being disposed in each of said recesses.
- The recesses of the support panel are preferably formed as U-shaped grooves.
- The conductors may have different widths. So, for example, conductors over which electrical signals are transmitted may have a lesser width than conductors over which an electric motor is supplied with electrical energy.
- It is of particular advantage if the conductors are respectively enclosed by an electrically insulating material. A polyester material may be used, for example, as the insulating material. By means of the enclosure, an electrical short circuit between mutually adjacent conductors can be avoided in a structurally simple manner.
- In the case of a preferred embodiment, the panel segment has at least one electric motor and an pivotable joint which is coupled with the electric motor and is adapted to be connected to a further panel segment. With the aid of the electric motor, the joint can, for example, be pivoted, and energy and signals can be supplied to the electric motor over the at least one strip conductor.
- It is particularly advantageous if the panel segment has two electric motors, each of which is coupled to an pivotable joint and are connected to each other by means of the at least one strip conductor. One of the two electric motors may be connected to a control and energy supply device by means of an electric cable which runs outside the panel segment, and the other electric motor may be connected to the first electric motor by means of the at least one conductor.
- As already explained, the present disclosure relates not only to a panel segment of the aforementioned type but also to a patient supporting panel with a number of panel segments that are pivotable in relation to one another, at least one panel segment being formed in the way explained above.
- The present disclosure also relates to an operating table with a support column, which supports such a patient supporting panel. It is advantageous if the patient supporting panel can be detachably connected to the support column. This provides the possibility of detaching the patient supporting panel from the support column and, for example, placing it on a trolley.
- The details of one or more embodiments of the invention are set forth in the accompanying drawings and the description below. Other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description and drawings, and from the claims.
