The invention relates, in particular, to structures of a dental and medical cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) apparatus. The basic construction of the apparatus includes two elongated frame parts (11, 21) out of which the first frame part (11) is arranged to support X-ray imaging means (14, 15) and wherein the frame parts (11, 21) are mechanically connected to each other via an articulated construction (22) so as to allow for tilting of the first frame part (11) supporting the X-ray imaging means (14, 15) with respect to the second frame part (21). At the proximity of the second end of the first and second elongated frame parts (11, 21) is arranged a locking mechanism (24) configured to enable connecting together and disconnecting the first and second elongated frame parts (11, 21).

A system for a medical chair that has a chair assembly having a plurality of movable components, a control system that selectively controls the movable components, and a wireless controller that communicates wirelessly with the control system to modify a configuration of the movable components.

A patient positioning apparatus for an X-ray dental imaging system includes a head rest and a chair separate from and spaced from the head rest. The chair has a seat portion and a back rest coupled to the seat portion. The chair further includes a locking system that locks a position of the back rest relative to the seat portion.

An examination chair has a seating surface, a back surface that is movable between a first position generally perpendicular to the plane of the seating surface and a second position generally parallel to and co-planar with the seating surface, a pair of arm members, disposed on opposite sides of the seating surface, each of the arm members having an upper section pivotally mounted to a lower section to enable the upper section to pivot away from the seating surface to permit greater access to a patient in the chair, each arm further containing a retractable stirrup member in the lower section thereof, and a scissor lift pivotally mounted to a carriage beneath the seating surface such that, when actuated, the scissor lift will raise and lower the seating surface.

A laser eye surgery system produces a treatment beam that includes a plurality of laser pulses. An optical coherence tomography (OCT) subsystem produces a source beam used to locate one or more structures of an eye. The OCT subsystem is used to sense the distance between a camera objective on the underside of the laser eye surgery system and the patient's eye. Control electronics compare the sensed distance with a pre-determined target distance, and reposition a movable patient support toward or away the camera objective until the sensed distance is at the pre-determined target distance. A subsequent measurement dependent upon the spacing between the camera objective and the patient's eye is performed, such as determining the astigmatic axis by observing the reflection of a plurality of point source LEDs arranged in concentric rings off the eye.
