ABSTRACT:
In a stationary or mobile C-arm X-ray examination device with isocentric shifting of the C-arm, including rotation around a rotational axis, in order to enable an exact positioning of the patient, a light source is provided at the X-ray examination device which emits a light beam in the direction of the isocenter. For at least one position of the C-arm, the light beam and the rotational axis are assured to coincide, so that the projection of the light beam in a patient correctly identifies the isocenter.
