X-ray diagnostic device and medical couch device

Abstract

An X-ray diagnostic device according to embodiments includes an X-ray tube, an X-ray detector, a couchtop, a drive mechanism, an input interface, and processing circuitry. The X-ray tube emits X-rays to a subject. The X-ray detector detects X-rays transmitted through the subject. The couchtop has the subject placed thereon. The drive mechanism generates the driving force for moving the couchtop. The input interface accepts instruction operations from an operator regarding the movement of the couchtop. The processing circuitry acquires one of a weight applied to the couchtop and a deflection amount of the couchtop, and determines the driving force to be generated by the drive mechanism based on one of the weight and the deflection amount and on the instruction operation.
