Abstract
A collimator exchanging system for exchanging collimators between an active holding device (14) and a storage device (8) includes a cart (5) which is provided with a catching/locking device (26) for the collimator. The device (26) is constructed so that the collimator can be exchanged only in the correct orientation of the cart relative to the active device or the storage device. An unlocking pin (34) of the cart enables the exchange with the exchanging system otherwise being blocked.
