A method is for actuating a medical imaging device including a radiation source, embodied during a rotational movement around an axis of rotation to irradiate an irradiation region from a plurality of angular positions. In an embodiment, the method includes capturing an object position of a moving object relative to the irradiation region. The Method further includes actuating the medical imaging device based upon the captured object position of the moving object, such that the intensity of the radiation emitted by the radiation source for a first partial number of the plurality of angular positions in a first angular range round the axis of rotation is reduced relative to a second partial number of the plurality of angular positions in a second angular range around the axis of rotation, the captured object position being included in the first angular range.

Method for actuating a medical imaging device and medical imaging device

An imaging device has a gantry designed to movie along the floor of a room in which the imaging device is installed. The imaging device has a supply unit that includes a transfer arrangement to transfer power and/or data and/or coolant between a stationary supply source and the movable gantry. The supply unit is arranged in or on the floor.
