One or more example embodiments of the present invention relates to a fin for collimating therapeutic radiation. The fin comprises a collimation area made of a first material and a holding area made of a second material. Herein, the collimation area and the holding area are soldered together. Herein, the first material is formed to collimate therapeutic radiation. Herein, the holding area can be coupled to an adjustment device for adjusting the fin.

Fin for collimating therapeutic radiation

A stationary anode for an X-ray generator, in particular of an X-ray imaging device or an X-ray therapy or spectroscopy device, includes a main anode body and an internal cooling duct, running in the axial direction, for conveying a cooling fluid to a heat exchange surface of the main anode body. A nozzle, disposed at the end of the cooling duct, is inventively positioned with respect to the heat exchange surface via stop elements such that, between the heat exchange surface and the nozzle, a gap is formed which extends over an angular range of 360&#xb0; about the axial direction.
