In an X-rayable patient positioning plate with an outer shell, enclosing a hollow space filled with filler material, the shell consists of a tub-like upper part (36) and a tub-like lower part (38), each having a tub floor (40, 42) forming the plate top side and the plate bottom side, respectively, which forms with the tub margin (44, 46) an inner angle of more than 90°, while the top part (36) and the bottom part (38) are dimensioned and fitted into each other such that the tub margins (44, 46) of the two parts (36, 38) lie flat against each other and their tub floors (40, 42) bound the hollow space of the shell between them.
