Abstract

See full text

According to one embodiment, a support mechanism movably supports the table top. A bed driver generates driving power to be supplied to the support mechanism to move the table top. An imaging mechanism includes a mechanism for acquiring medical image data associated with a subject placed on the table top. An ascending switch receives an ascending instruction for the table top. A descending switch receives a descending instruction for the table top. A storage unit stores the height of the table top at the time of the issuance of an ascending instruction as a target return position. When a descending instruction is issued, a bed controller controls the bed driver to descend the table top to the target return position stored in the storage unit.
