Shielded movable door element of a multimodality medical suite

A patient support and transport system for a multimodality medical suite including at least two clinical treatment rooms separated by a wall including a movable door, with at least one room configured with an imaging system, the patient support and transport system comprising:

• a track system comprising a pair of tracks, with one track in one room aligned with another track in the other room;
• a support carriage coupled to the track system and configured to move between the two rooms of the suite;
• a duplex socket interface module attached to the support carriage;
• a flexible raceway comprising:
• a first conduit management system including a first conduit interface module configured to automatically couple with and decouple from the duplex socket interface module, with the first conduit management system coupled to electrical and data ports in the medical treatment room;
• and
• a second conduit management system coupled to electrical and data ports in the room with the imaging system and including a second conduit interface module configured to automatically couple with and decouple from the duplex socket interface module upon movement of the support carriage respectively into and out of the room with the imaging system;
• a vertical support member coupled to the support carriage;
• and
• a support assembly coupled to the vertical support member and configured to selectively articulate a patient bed attached to the support assembly.

A patient support and transport system for a multimodality medical suite including at least two clinical treatment rooms separated by a wall including a door, with one room configured with an imaging system, the patient support and transport system comprising:

• a track system comprising a pair of tracks, with one track in one room aligned with another track in the other room;
• a support carriage coupled to the track system and configured to move between the two rooms of the suite;
• a flexible raceway configured to extend within the length of the two rooms of the suite, with one end of the raceway coupled to the support carriage with the flexible raceway further configured to selectively extend through a movable door element in the door of the wall of the multimodality medical suite, the door is part of the wall positioned between the rooms of the suite, the movable door element comprising:
• a housing coupled to the door and configured to selectively move from a first position to a second position, wherein the housing is further configured to move to the second position when a shield door component, coupled to the raceway, replaces the housing and is disposed in a space in the portion of the door vacated by the door element, and
• a shield component disposed in the housing;
• a vertical support member coupled to the support carriage;
• and
• a support assembly coupled to the vertical support member and configured to selectively articulate a patient bed attached to the support assembly.
