A cathode assembly for a rotating anode X-ray source comprises two parts: a focusing part that is mechanically connected to the remainder of the X-ray source and permanently aligned with respect to the anode and a separate emission part that holds the electron source and is removably connected to the focusing part. The electron source is permanently mounted in the emission part and precisely aligned to the focusing part. The focusing part and the emission part are mechanically connected aligned relative to one another at the time of replacement. This arrangement allows the emission part, including the electron source to be quickly removed and replaced by an inexperienced user while maintaining the accuracy of the X-ray source alignment.
