Abstract

See full text

In an X-ray generating device (2) a temperature of a focal spot (21) may be determined. Furthermore a load condition is determined, which may also take into account a planned operation procedure of the X-ray generating device (2). The focal spot of the X-ray generating device is then automatically resizable based at least in part on the load condition.
