Heated Diagnostic Radiology Examination Table

Project Overview

A frequent patient complaint is that current x-ray tables are hard and cold. A pad can be used to eliminate the first complaint; however the temperature of the table cannot be altered on standard tables. A heated exam table or attachment that has a temperature control to give patients added comfort during exams, needs to be developed. The materials used need to be radiolucent and may not obscure the body part being imaged. A mechanism must be implemented that eliminates the possibility of patient injury such as burn.
