Abstract
The grating device () for an X-ray imaging device comprises a grating arrangement () and an actuation arrangement (). The grating arrangement () comprises a plurality of grating segments (). The actuation arrangement () is configured to move the plurality of grating segments () with at least a rotational component between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the grating segments () are arranged in the path of an X-ray beam (), so that the grating segments () influence portions of the X-ray beam (). In the second position, the grating segments () are arranged outside the portions of the path of an X-ray beam (), so that the portions of the X-ray beam () are unaffected by the grating segments ().
