Abstract
An X-ray CT apparatus includes a frame 1 and a radiographic unit accommodated in the frame 1. The upper portion of the frame 1 is shaped to be generally semicircular. In this X-ray CT apparatus, almost electric components 9 are positioned in the lower part of the frame 1 collectively. Consequently, such a positioning of the electric components makes it easy to realize a shielding structure for the components against the electromagnetic noises. It is possible to arrange a power line 15 and a signal line 16 in a perfectly separated manner and reduce the wiring area and length of the lines 15, 16.
Claims16
An X-ray CT apparatus comprising;
- a frame having a substantially circular radiographic port formed so as to allow an object to be inspected laid on a bed to be inserted thereinto;
- a radiographic unit accommodated in the frame, for taking a tomographic image of the object to be inspected inserted into the radiographic port;
- and
- electric components collectively positioned in a lower part of the frame, said electric components including at least a control baseplate, an amplifier circuit system, power circuits, a timer for heaters, a magnet conductor for ceasing supplying power when an overcurrent flows, fuses, a breaker, and a controller for controlling dose of X-ray or other parameters.
