ABSTRACT:
X-ray imaging systems can have different modes of operation. There is a calibration process for each mode of operation. Conventionally, the overall system is actuated during the calibration process in exactly the same way as when operating the x-ray imaging system (10) with the associated mode of operation. Individual calibration processes are now restricted to fixing a flat-panel parameter set which matches the mode of operation and by which the flat-panel detector (12) is actuated. However, the remaining system (14) does not have to be actuated depending on the mode of operation associated with the calibration process. A fixed system parameter set which is independent of the mode of operation is sufficient. It has been proven to be sufficient if no machine movements are carried out during all calibration processes, the x-ray radiation generator operates in the two-point technique and a series of images is recorded.
