摘要：The disclosure describes cable management systems that provide adjustable lengths of cables that connect to various electronic medical or surgical tools. The systems can reduce the lengths of loose or hanging cables and define routes that preventing cross-over, looping and/or bunching of loose lengths of long cables.

主权项：1. A system for an MRI diagnostic or interventional procedure, comprising: a patient support table configured to move a longitudinal distance in and out of a bore of a magnet associated with an MRI scanner in an MR scanner room of an MR suite; at least one patch bay of connectors extending along at least one side and/or foot end portion of the table; a plurality of first leads, at least one that extends from at least one of the patch bay connectors to connect at least one intrabody device; a plurality of second leads having opposing first and second ends, the first ends of the second leads connect directly or indirectly to the at least one patch bay in communication with a respective one or more of the first leads via the at least one patch bay, wherein the plurality of second leads are held in at least a first cable bundle and the first cable bundle extends away from the patch bay with the second ends of the second leads configured to attach to remote devices held in a separate room away from the MR Scanner room of the MR suite, separated by an RF shield; and a cable management system in communication with the first cable bundle, wherein the cable management system is configured to extend and retract the first cable bundle to automatically adjust a length of the first cable bundle in the MR scanner room whereby the second leads remain above a floor in the MR scanner room while connected to the at least one patch bay and the remote devices as the patient support table is moved in and out of the bore of the magnet associated with the MRI scanner.
