Abstract: This disclosure provides operating units for a medical apparatus having a driven movable element comprising a fixing device for being fixed to the movable element, an actuating element, a signal processing device, at least one actuation sensor for detecting an actuation of the actuating element in at least one predetermined actuation axis (B1??B1+, B2??B2+), wherein the actuation sensor is adapted to supply an actuation signal depending on a direction of actuation (B1?, B1+, B2?, B2+) in the actuation axis (B1??B1+, B2??B2+) to the signal processing device and at least one direction sensor for outputting a direction signal. The signal processing device is adapted to align an actuation coordinate system according to the direction signal such that the direction of movement is equal to the direction of actuation (B1??B1+, B2??B2+), and to supply a control signal according to the actuation signal in the aligned actuation coordinate system to a control device of the medical apparatus.

Abstract: The elongate inner bulb (1) defines a longitudinal axis (A) and is sealed at mutually opposing ends by sealing parts (6; 32), an outer bulb being placed, with an adjoining tube piece, over the inner bulb and being fixed to the sealing part by means of an annular beading formed there, the end of the tube piece being radially attached to the beading, the maximum inner diameter of the beading being larger than the outer diameter of the sealing part in the region of the beading.

Abstract: For reducing of the weight of leakage x-ray radiation shielding for a rotary piston x-ray tube that rotates in a cooling medium in a radiator housing of an x-ray radiator, the rotary piston x-ray tube having a rotary anode and a cathode fixedly connected with the vacuum housing thereof, the vacuum housing has at least one first region of a total shielding and the radiator housing has at least a second region of the total shielding. Only the respective regions of the vacuum housing and the radiator housing has that are irradiated by the leakage x-ray radiation are provided with shielding.

Abstract: An x-ray apparatus that accepts an x-ray radiator therein has shielding for the x-ray leakage radiation originating from the x-ray radiator that is an Integral component of (built into) the x-ray apparatus. An x-ray radiator with an x-ray tube and a housing in which the x-ray tube is contained is composed only of materials that are not suitable for absorption of x-rays.

Abstract: The elongate bulb (1) of the lamp, which defines a longitudinal axis (A), is sealed at mutually opposing ends by sealing parts (6; 32), on which an outer bulb is fixed by means of a beading. The end of a tube piece adjoining the outer bulb is attached to the beading tangentially on the inside.

Abstract: In a method for manufacturing a radiation detector and a radiation detector of a computed tomography apparatus manufactured in accordance therewith, a grid-like structure is introduced into a luminophore layer. It is thus possible to simultaneously scan a number of slices during a computed tomography examination of a subject.
