Abstract: The invention relates to a radiodiagnostics apparatus for mammograms with an adjustable x-ray tube fastened to a mount, a compression device, and two recording stages to be selectively aligned with the x-ray tube. The recording stages are pivotably connected with the mount in such a way that one can be brought into a recording position and the second into a parked position.

Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment in order to obstruct the examination of the patient as little as possible and simultaneously render possible a rapid shift of the working position of the image detection apparatus from a horizontal position immediately beneath the patient support platform to a vertical position immediately above the patient support platform, the disclosure provides that the lifting carriage exhibits an essentially angled configuration and that the image detection apparatus is pivotally mounted on the free end of the horizontal leg of the lifting carriage, that the stand carriage, the lifting carriage (guided on the stand carriage) and the support-mounting (pivotally mounted on the lifting carriage) are arranged beneath the image detection apparatus, and that coupling elements (which are capable of being brought into engagement with the x-ray examination apparatus) are connected with the stand carriage.
