Gantry

The housing for the imaging source and detectors into which the patient is placed for computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.


The adjustable framework on a computed tomography (CT) machine that houses the x-ray tube, collimators, and detectors.


The apparatus utilized in a CT scan, often referred to as a couch or table, serves as a platform where the patient lies down. This gantry-like structure smoothly moves the patient into the x-ray scanner section during the imaging process.
