Abstract The invention relates to a mobile X-ray examination unit including a C-bend that carries an X-radiator and a radiation receiver at its ends and that is displaceably seated on a carriage which includes a horizontally disposed boom, whereby the C-bend is displaceably seated in a holder along its circumference. The holder is arranged on the boom in height-adjustable fashion, preferably via a scissors rodding. The cables for X-radiator and radiation receiver are conducted out of view within the C-bend.
