Machine for diagnostic and/or therapeutic treatment, particularly a nuclear magnetic resonance imaging machine
First Claim
1. Machine for diagnostic and/or therapeutic treatment, particularly a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine, comprising, in combination therewith, a table (2) for supporting the patient which table is engageable and disengageable from part of the structure of the machine (1), characterized in that the table (2, 102, 202) is provided with at least one peripheral recess (302) in its surface or in a part thereof which recess is complemented by a side (201) of the operating surface forming part of the structure of the machine (1), particularly of the delimitation walls of the cavity or chamber for accommodating the patient.

Abstract
The invention relates to a machine for diagnostic and/or therapeutic treatment, particularly a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine, comprising, in combination therewith, a table (2) for supporting the patient, with at least one peripheral recess (302) in the surface of the table (2) or of a part thereof (102) which recess is complemented by a side (201) of the operating surface forming part of the structure of the machine, particularly of the delimitation walls of the cavity or chamber for accommodating the patient.

19. A machine in particular a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine having a working side or surface (201) delimiting the cavity for the patient and having means for securing on it a receiving coil (30, 31), characterized in that the coil (30, 31) can be fixed in one or more predetermined positions inside the cavity of the magnet, (1), and can be rotated about an axis perpendicular to the side or surface (201).
- 27. A Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine having at least two plane surfaces delimiting the cavity for the patient characterized in that the magnet (1) has at least one or more rigid shielding members (41) for at least partially closing at least one of the open sides, which can be moved between a position for opening and a position for at least partially closing at least one side, said member/s being made of an electrically conducting material or anyway coated with layers made of an electrically conducting material.
