Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to a digital X-ray imaging device. Background Art

[0002] Digital X-ray imaging systems are mainly used in radiology departments such as emergency rooms, general radiology departments, orthopedic clinics, and imaging centers in primary medical and health institutions at the county, township, and community levels. They can also be used in emergency rooms, operating rooms, and ICU wards in large hospitals. Digital X-ray imaging systems include detectors, image processors, image displays, etc. The X-ray signals projected through the human body are detected and acquired by the detectors, directly forming digital image data. The digital image data is transmitted to the computer and displayed on the display, and can also be post-processed. Digital X-ray imaging systems can cover all digital photography examination items for conventional and special positions such as examination beds, chest radiograph stands, and wheelchairs, meet clinical photography needs, and have a wide range of applications.

[0003] Generally, the detectors of traditional digital X-ray imaging systems are independently set, and the main equipment of the digital X-ray imaging system needs to be pushed and moved by manpower. Each time a photographic examination is performed, the operator first places the detector in the corresponding position according to the patient's body position and the examination items, and then pushes the main equipment in. After the examination is completed, the main equipment is pushed out. The operator needs to frequently take and place the detector and push and push the main equipment out, which is labor-intensive and affects the efficiency of photographic examinations. In addition, for areas with radiation or easy infection, manual operation of equipment will increase the risk of medical staff. Summary of the invention
