An X-ray device (1) is provided including an X-ray source (8) and a first
X-ray detector (9,100) for producing a first X-ray image data set of an
examination object (P). A second X-ray detector (20) is provided for
producing a second X-ray image data set of examination object (P) where
the second X-ray detector (20) has a smaller detector surface (23) than
the first X-ray detector (9,100). The second X-ray detector (20) may
produce an X-ray image associated with the second X-ray image data set
that has a higher local resolution than the X-ray image (12) associated
with the first X-ray image data set. The second X-ray detector (20) may
be movably connected with the first X-ray detector (9,100) so the second
X-ray detector (20) maybe articulated upstream of the first X-ray
detector (9,100).
