Angiography is one of the most reliable and contemporary procedure of the vascular system imaging. X-ray spectrums provided by all modern medical angiographs are too broad to acquire high contrast images and provide low radiation dose at the same time. The new method of narrow X-ray spectrum achieving is based on the idea of channelling radiation application. The X-ray filters used in this method allows eliminating the high energy part of the spectrum and providing dramatic dose reduction. The scheme of the facility including the X-ray filter is discussed. The results of the spectrum analysis for the channelling radiation source and typical angiography X-ray tube are discussed. Doses obtained by the water phantom and contrast of the iodine agent image are also provided for both cases.

А biperiodical accelerating structure (BAS) with operating frequency 27 GHz for the 6 MeV compact radiotherapy electron accelerator is considered. The operating frequency 27 GHz allows to significantly reduce the facility sizes, unlike the S-, X- and C-band operating linacs. The optimal geometrical parameters of BAS necessary for π/2 mode were defined by means of accelerating and coupling cell tuning. The BAS coupler was also simulated. Results of the electron beam dynamics analysis in designed structure are also discussed.

Over the recent years carbon nanostructure cathodes have become promising as a high brightness electron sources with large working area for field emission structures. Measurements and calculations of a field emission strip cathode based on carbon structure and a unit for its investigation are presented in the article. For measuring of the cathode emitting properties and determination of the electrons initial parameters used in the electron beam computer simulation the experimental setup is been developed. The setup consists of the high-voltage triode electrode system and allows to investigate the voltage-current characteristics of the cathode and to estimate the electron distribution of the beam on the anode surface. The anode electron distribution evaluations are processed by the measurements of the emitted X-ray focal spot on the anode by application of the CCD camera. Verification of the simulated electron beam dynamics can be obtained by application of the experimentally acquired data.
