Abstract
A method for operating the X-ray device, which includes a detector, a radiation source, or a C-arm including the detector and the radiation source, and an articulated arm and a base. Initially, a starting position of the X-ray device is specified with respect to the detector, the radiation source, or the C-arm, and the articulated arm, and an end position of the X-ray device is specified at least with respect to the detector, the radiation source, or the C-arm. A plurality of paths that may be followed by the articulated arm and the detector, the radiation source, or the C-arm on movement from the starting position into the end position are automatically determined. One path of the plurality of paths for the movement of the X-ray device is selected, and the X-ray device is moved into the end position.
