Patent attributes
An X-ray fluoroscopic imaging apparatus includes first slide mechanism is disposed at a lower end of a support column, and a second slide mechanism is disposed at an upper end of the support column. When an operation unit has received an instruction, a controller performs a first mode in which the X-ray generator is moved in the predetermined direction by operating the second slide mechanism to move an X-ray support arm in the predetermined direction with respect to the upper end of the support column. Thereafter, the controller performs a second mode of operating the first slide mechanism to move the lower end of the support column at a predetermined first speed in the predetermined direction with respect to a support column support arm, while operating the second slide mechanism to move the X-ray support arm at a second speed smaller than the first speed in an opposite direction.
