A remote control fluoroscopic unit has been modified by the addition of an angiographic cradle and remotely inflated pneumatic prone pressure paddle to provide servo-assisted gastrointestinal examinations in debilitated or uncooperative patients.
The system provides greater accuracy and ease of positioning of these patients than conventional equipment, and results in a high quality examination. It further automates the examination of cooperative patients by remote control fluoroscopy.
Several approaches toward methods for more efficient utilization of remote control equipment are mentioned.
