Abstract:
The present invention relates to the generation of X-ray-radiation (10), in particular to an X-ray generating device (2) adapted for interventional imaging. Brachytherapy requires for miniaturized X-ray generating devices (2) suitable for in vivo operation. In particular, an X-ray generating device (2) arranged within a patient's body requires dedicated cabling for providing both a high voltage and/or cooling to the X-ray source. Accordingly, an X-ray generating device (2) is provided that employs a mechanical energy source for local generation of a high voltage within the X-ray generating device (2) and further employing the mechanical energy source for cooling of the X-ray source.
