Abstract

An articulated surgical table configured to alternatively receive an orthopedic attachment and a scanning table attachment. The orthopedic attachment is provided with a frame having a plurality of mounting points for mounting two detachable spar members. Either or both of the spar members may be mounted to the frame to provide the desired level of patient support and operator access. In addition, a pelvic support plate is supported on top of the frame and is formed with an asymmetrical construction. The pelvic support plate includes a cutout area on a front corner thereof for permitting additional access to the affected or broken leg of a patient. The plate may be flipped over to position the cutout area on the opposite side of the patient, depending on the location of the affected leg. The scanning table attachment includes an X-ray transparent table structure formed with a length sufficient to support a patient from the perineum to the top of the patient's head, and permits X-ray imaging from all angles around the table without obstruction.
