| 20080281187 | Ferromagnetic threat detection method apparatus - A method and apparatus for detecting ferromagnetic threat objects on a recumbent patient, including magnetizing/sensing stations having mutually orthogonal magnetizing axes. Two magnetizing/sensing stations can be used, but three or more are preferred. The magnetizing/sensing stations are arranged on a table-like mounting structure providing a path for the patient to roll beneath the magnetizing/sensing stations on a gurney. Three additional magnetizing/sensing stations can be provided on either side, or on each side, of the gurney path, at the same height as the patient. | 11-13-2008 |
