| 发明名称 | X-ray tube with rotating anode aperture | ||
| 摘要 | An x-ray tube for generating a sweeping x-ray beam. A cathode is disposed within a vacuum enclosure and emits a beam of electrons attracted toward a rotating anode. The rotating anode is adapted for rotation with respect to the vacuum enclosure about an axis of rotation. At least one collimator opening or aperture corotates with the rotating anode within the vacuum enclosure, such that a swept x-ray beam is emitted. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. An X-ray tube comprising: a. a vacuum enclosure; b. a cathode disposed within the vacuum enclosure for emitting a beam of electrons; c. an anode adapted for rotation within the vacuum enclosure about an axis of rotation; and d. at least one collimator opening, disposed within the vacuum enclosure, adapted for rotation about the axis of rotation, and for periodic transmission therethrough of x-rays produced at the anode. | ||
