Independently rotatable detector plate for medical imaging device

A fluoroscopic imaging device comprising:

• a c-arm support assembly;
• an x-ray source assembly mounted at a first distal end of the c-arm support assembly;
• a detector assembly rotatably mounted to a second distal end of the c-arm support assembly, wherein the detector assembly is configured to rotate independently of the c-arm support assembly;
• and
• a collimator assembly rotatably mounted adjacent the x-ray source assembly, wherein an axis of rotation of the collimator assembly matches an axis of rotation of the detector assembly, and the collimator assembly is configured to automatically match a manual rotation of the detector assembly to maintain an orientation of the collimator assembly with the detector assembly.

A fluoroscopic imaging device comprising:

• a c-arm support assembly;
• an x-ray source assembly mounted at a first distal end of the c-arm support assembly;
• a detector assembly rotatably mounted to a second distal end of the c-arm support assembly, wherein the detector assembly is configured to rotate independently of the c-arm support assembly;
• and
• a collimator assembly disposed adjacent the x-ray source assembly, wherein the collimator assembly comprises a base member disposed between the detector assembly and the x-ray source assembly, wherein the collimator assembly comprises at least two collimators, each rotatably mounted relative to the base member around an axis of rotation and selectably positionable relative to the detector assembly, wherein the at least two collimators are linearly movable in two directions relative to the base member such that the axis of rotation of each linearly translate therewith, and wherein the at least two collimators each comprise differently-shaped openings.
