  • Patent number: 7989787
    Abstract: There is a structure element, in particular for radiation shielding constructions, having at least one floor plate and at least one wall section and/or at least one ceiling section. The structure element is characterized in that the at least one wall section and/or the at least one ceiling section comprise/comprises at least two shell elements made from metal, plastic and/or wood and a layer which lies in between and is made from radiation shielding materials. In addition, a construction, in particular a radiation shielding construction, is proposed having at least one floor plate and/or ceiling plate which delimits a storey and a structure element described above.

  • Patent number: 7580500
    Abstract: A computer tomograph (1) that comprises at least a stationary electron source for generating an electron beam (13), a ring-shaped, stationary X-ray source with a largely ring-shaped target (14) enclosing a measuring field (7), media for coaxially guiding (22) the electron beam (13) in the X-ray source (5) along a circular path to the ring-shaped target (14), as well as media for deflecting (21) the electron beam (13) towards the target (14), in order to generate an X-ray cluster (8) that rotates concentrically around itself for irradiating the measuring field (7) from various directions. Furthermore, the computer tomograph (1) comprises a stationary detector (6) executed as a ring shape and consisting of numerous detector elements from which a computer calculates the measured values to create an image of the examined object in the measuring field (7). The ring-shaped target (14) has numerous discrete focal areas (20) that can be scanned discontinuously by a focal point of the electron beam (13?).

  • Patent number: 7486775
    Abstract: A device for irradiating tissue encompassing at least one electron source for generating an electron beam, numerous radiation heads that are firmly and annularly arranged in a supporting frame around an isocenter of the device and emit radiation towards the isocenter, and one beam guidance system to guide the electron beam in the housing towards the radiation heads. The beam guidance system has been built as a polygon, especially as a pentagon arranged like a ring around the isocenter, in which case media for deflecting the electron beam have been placed at every corner point of the polygon.
