Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006131241A1] Disclosed is an X-ray laminography and/or tomosynthesis apparatus (2) comprising a stationary X-ray tube (4) with an X-ray source for generating X-rays in order to scanningly radiograph an object (6) that is to be examined, a stationary fixture (8) for the object (6) that is to be examined, said stationary fixture (8) being arranged in a stationary manner during a radiographic session, and a stationary X-ray detector (10) for detecting the X-rays once the object (6) that is to be examined has been radiographed. The inventive X-ray detector (10) is provided with a substantially planar detection surface (12) whose dimensions are selected taking into account the distance of the X-ray source from the object (6) that is to be examined and the distance of the object (6) that is to be detected from the X-ray detector such that the X-rays always impinge the detection surface (12) during the scanning process after radiographing the object (6).
