Abstract
An X-ray CT device according to an embodiment includes a gantry, a top board, and a movement mechanism. The gantry includes an X-ray tube that generates X-rays and a detector that detects the X-rays. The top board inserts the subject into the opening section of the gantry. The movement mechanism moves the top board in a longitudinal direction. Furthermore, the position of the top board in a vertical direction at the position that intersects with the path of the X-rays is changed at substantially the same slope relative to the movement distance of the top board when the top board is moved in the longitudinal direction.

An X-ray CT device comprising:
- a gantry configured to include
- an X-ray tube configured to generate an X-ray, and
- a detector configured to detect the X-ray;
- a top board configured to insert a subject into an opening section of the gantry;
- and
- a movement mechanism configured to move the top board in a longitudinal direction, wherein
- a position of the top board in a vertical direction at a position that intersects with a path of the X-ray is changed at substantially a same slope relative to a movement distance of the top board when the top board is moved in the longitudinal direction.
An X-ray CT device comprising:
- a gantry configured to include
- an X-ray tube configured to generate an X-ray, and
- a detector configured to detect the X-ray;
- a top board configured to insert a subject into an opening section of the gantry;
- and
- a movement mechanism configured to include a support section, supporting the top board by being in contact with a lower surface of the top board, and to move the top board in a longitudinal direction, wherein
- a surface of the top board, being in contact with the support section, is curved in the longitudinal direction.
A bed device comprising:
- a top board on which a subject is placed;
- a movement mechanism configured to include a support section, supporting the top board by being in contact with a lower surface of the top board, and to move the top board in a longitudinal direction, wherein
- a surface of the top board, being in contact with the support section, is curved in the longitudinal direction.
