    Abstract: A therapeutic apparatus includes an image capturing mechanism and a mechanical arm, and further includes a calibration plate on which a calibration plane is defined. The mechanism includes reference plate and image capturing element with adjustable capturing direction, the capturing element is opposite to and spaced apart from reference plate, and a surface of reference plate facing the capturing element is defined as reference plane. The arm includes a body, a fixed end and an operating end, the fixed and operating ends are located at different positions of the body, respectively, the body is fixed to mounting base through fixed end, the calibration plate is arranged at operating end, and the body is driven to move operating end to a position between capturing element and reference plate such that the calibration plate is parallel to calibration plane and reference plane.

    Abstract: Provided is an X-ray imaging apparatus that enables an operator to freely manually move an X-ray source along a rail installed on a ceiling or a floor, and can capture a fluoroscopic image. An X-ray control unit continuously emitting X-rays from an X-ray source and permits fluoroscopy only in a case in which one or more predetermined conditions, including a condition in which the X-ray source is stopped at a predetermined position on a rail corresponding to a position at which an X-ray detector is held, are satisfied. Specifically, the X-ray control unit enables an operation of a fluoroscopy switch, and continuously supplies a tube current and a tube voltage to the X-ray tube in a case in which the operator operates the fluoroscopy switch.

    Abstract: This invention is related to a method to adjust the starting position of an acquisition trajectory of a mobile X-ray device that is to perform a portable X-ray tomography acquisition sequence. The invention supports an operator in positioning a mobile X-ray device such that it can subsequently successfully and autonomously perform a digital tomosynthesis exam. Alternatively may an operator provide visual input on a camera image on where he desires the tomosynthesis acquisition to be performed, allowing the mobile X-ray device to adjust its initial starting position autonomously.
