Abstract

A method for stereoscopic x-ray imaging by a stereoscopic x-ray tube and by an x-ray radiation detector is provided. The x-ray radiation detector has a buffer. The stereoscopic x-ray tube has two x-ray beam sources disposed a short distance from one another. 2D image datasets are acquired at relatively short intervals one after the other, which have good quality.
