The radiation source and the image intensifier are respectively connected to the carrier via individual, laterally projecting booms. Each boom is connected to the carrier so as to be rotatable around an axis at the end of the carrier to which it is connected. The arrangement allows unimpacted accessibility to the patient in different types of examinations.
