Motts nailed this. This is a very old (likely 1940's) era urology equipment. Urology systems have short tables and styrops to allow the specialist to work on the patients lower regions. The trumpet style collimator is a tell-tale sign of its age... at the time the radiographer would substitute the collimator depending on the size of the x-ray field desired ... This is where the term "coning down" comes from which is still widely used to describe the process of adjusting the x-ray field (these days there are lead blades controlled by knobs so no pieces are swapped to achieve the desired field)

Motts, you are definitely correct... This is a tilting table for a flouro system. Many flouro procedures are used for barium gastro-intestinal contrast studies and by positioning the patient in a standing to a horizontal to a trendelenburg (feet over the head in a minus 15 degree tilt) the contrast is sloshed around trough the patient and problems are exposed
