ABSTRACT:
An X-ray examination apparatus has an X-ray diagnostic assembly with a carrier having an X-ray source and a beam receiver disposed at opposite ends of the carrier, and a first coupling part connected to the carrier, a mobile base unit containing a plurality of components for operating said X-ray diagnostic assembly and having a second coupling part, and at least one support for stationary mounting in an examination room, having a third coupling part. The first coupling part of the carrier can be optionally connected to the second coupling part, for producing a mobile diagnostic apparatus, or to the third coupling part for producing a stationary diagnostic apparatus. When the first and third coupling parts are engaged and the X-ray diagnostic assembly is used as a stationary apparatus, the mobile base unit can be moved to the side, so that it does not hinder access to the stationary apparatus, but the components contained in the base unit remain connected to the X-ray diagnostic assembly.
