Open source Medical Device Project: Develop an animal bed system which is capable to translate in X, Y and Z direction as well as the angular motion

Project Overview

To develop and design an animal bed system that will be able to translate in the x, y, and z directions, as well as angular motion. This bed system must be capable to work in micro CT, micro PET, and micro RT systems. Must design a platform for mice that can move in the treatment area. The bed system should also be made with oxygen and isofluorine ducts to keep the subject unconscious. If possible design should incorporate other vitals during the treatment like: heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, etc. In addition, shielding of the animal bed system may be required to attenuate the treatment X-rays.
