the area on the target of the x-ray tube which the electron stream strikes and from which x-rays are emitted. Called also focus.
 temperature. Users can operate the x-ray tube X-ray tube

An electronic device used for the generation of x-rays. X-rays are produced in the x-ray tube by accelerating electrons to a high velocity by an electrostatic field and then suddenly stopping them by collision with a solid body, the so-called
 with higher energies at the highest possible resolution, for increased image contrast. Ideal for inspecting low contrast structures or high absorption structures.
