| 20080289106 | AUTOMATICALLY CORRECTING THE POSITION OF A PATIENT SUPPORT FOR A TARGETED IRRADIATION OF A PATIENT - A method for automatically correcting the position of a patient support for a targeted irradiation of a patient is provided. The patient support correction is carried out according to patient data. A patient support deformation occurring as a result of the positioning the patient on the couch is calculated from the patient data. The position of the patient couch is then adjusted according to the calculated patient support deformation for a targeted irradiation. The method enables a more accurate irradiation of patient. | 11-27-2008 |
| 20080301872 | POSITIONING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR POSITIONING A LOAD - A positioning device for positioning a load is provided. The positioning device includes a motor, a measuring device, and an evaluation device. The measuring device is associated with the motor, and is operable to ascertain measurement data that characterizes the motor current consumption by the motor in the positioning of the load. The evaluation device evaluates the measurement data that have been ascertained by the measuring device, so that in that way the loading of the positioning device by the load can be ascertained. | 12-11-2008 |
