Abstract: A motor-adjustable X-ray system comprises a C-arm, which has two degrees of freedom and is adjustable with a motor support. The motor support has a force pickup device which is provided to detect a force exerted by an operator when manipulating the C-arm. The force pickup device is configured to detect a plurality of directional components of the exerted force and to cooperate with an evaluation unit, by which as a function of the plurality of the directional components of the exerted force, different amounts of motor support of the C-arm in the two degrees of freedom are established via the evaluation unit.

Abstract: An X-ray system, comprises a motor-adjustable C-arm, an input device which has a first actuating device and is mechanically connected to the C-arm, a dead man's switch, which is mechanically connected to the C-arm, and a pattern recognition module which cooperates with the input device and the dead man's switch, and is provided to determine a classification of actuating signal patterns generated via the first actuating device. A first signal group is activatable when the dead man's switch is actuated, and a second signal group is activatable when the dead man's switch is not actuated.

Abstract: A device for detecting an orientation and spacing of an X-ray source relative to an X-ray receiver comprises a projector which is disposed at a predetermined orientation and a predetermined spacing relative to the X-ray source, and is configured to project a predetermined pattern of electromagnetic waves in a direction of the X-ray receiver. A detector is configured to detect the predetermined pattern projected by the projector. A positioning detection device, connected to the detector and configured to receive an output signal from the detector, generates a positioning signal as a function the output signal. The positioning signal comprises information about the orientation and spacing of the X-ray source relative to the X-ray receiver.
