Combined Imaging Apparatus with a Position-Determining Unit

Abstract

A combined imaging apparatus is described that includes a first medical imaging apparatus, which is embodied as a magnetic resonance apparatus, and a further medical imaging apparatus, with a patient-receiving region, a patient-supporting apparatus, which has a patient table which can be moved in at least one direction, and a position-determining system, which is embodied to determine a position of the patient table in at least one direction and which has a capturing unit, wherein the position-determining system has a shielding system for an arrangement of the capturing unit, wherein the shielding system has a shielding housing with an optically transparent viewing window and a protective cover for the optically transparent viewing window.
