Patent abstract
An anode for an X-ray source is formed in two parts, a main part (18) and a collimating part (22). The main part (18) has the target region (20) formed on it. The two parts between them define an electron aperture (36) through which electrons pass reach the target region (20), and an X-ray aperture through which the X-rays produced at the target leave the anode. The anode produces at least the first stage of collimation of the X-ray beam produced.
