Abstract
Transport cart/patient table system for transferring an exchangeable slab of the patient table, which slab can be moved by means of a lifting arrangement, between the table and the transport cart, whereby the transport cart is moved under the patient table for the transfer of the exchangeable slab, has a first guide arranged on the transport cart and a second guide arranged on the patient table, which can be brought to engage one another as the cart is moved under the table. The guides engage in such a way to allow the transport cart to be pivotable and to be displaced longitudinally, while the engaged guides serve to guide the transport cart.
