Cooling arrangement for X-ray emitter for computer tomograph enables the X-ray source to be operated over longer periods

摘要

The X-ray emitter (10 has an X-ray source (3) in a housing (2) filled with coolant. The cooling arrangement has at least one phase conversion storage device (12-15) containing phase conversion material and thermally conductively connected to the X-ray source. The phase conversion storage device can be arranged in the X-ray source's coolant.
