Section: claims

1. A collimator for stray radiation, comprising:a plurality of absorption elements to absorb X-ray radiation, separated from one another by a filler and support material, the plurality of absorption elements being at least one of aligned approximately in parallel and oriented towards a common focus, and the plurality of absorption elements being arranged in a statistically distributed manner, wherein the filler and support material are formed by individual fibers of a material which is transparent to X-ray radiation. 2. The collimator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the absorption elements include individual fibers of a material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation. 3. The collimator as claimed in claim 2, wherein the fibers of the material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation, include a fiber diameter of 0.2 mm. 4. The collimator as claimed in claim 2, wherein the fibers of the material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation and the fibers of the material which is transparent to X-ray radiation are at least one of aligned approximately in parallel with one another and oriented towards the common focus. 5. The collimator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the absorption elements and the filler and support material are bonded to one another. 6. The collimator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the absorption elements and the filler and support material are present in the collimator in a volume ratio which results in a filling percentage of between 5% and 30% with the absorption elements. 7. The collimator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the absorption elements are formed of a metallic material and the filler and support material is a plastic material. 8. The collimator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the collimator is constructed in the form of a level plate in which the absorption elements are aligned at least approximately perpendicularly to a plate plane. 9. The collimator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the collimator is constructed in the form of a plate which is bent approximately in the form of a calotte shell and in which the absorption elements are aligned towards a center of the sphere. 10. A medical X-ray device comprising the collimator of claim 1. 11. A method for producing a collimator including a plurality of absorption elements to absorb X-ray radiation and a material to separate the plurality of absorption elements, the method comprising:bonding the absorption elements to the material to form a collimator in such a manner that a statistical distribution of the absorption elements over a width of the collimator is obtained, wherein fibers of a material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation as absorption elements are intermixed with fibers of a material which is transparent to X-ray radiation as the material, from the intermixed fibers a fiber stack is formed and bonded to form a compound fiber system and the compound fiber system is split into individual discs perpendicularly to the fiber axes of the intermixed fibers. 12. The method as claimed in claim 11, wherein the fibers of the material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation and the fibers of the material transparent to X-ray radiation are intermixed in a ratio which results in a filling percentage of between 5% and 30% with the fibers of the material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation. 13. The method as claimed in claim 11, wherein the absorption elements and the material are bonded to one another. 14. A collimator for stray radiation, comprising:a plurality of absorption elements to absorb X-ray radiation; anda material to separate the plurality of absorption elements, the plurality of absorption elements being arranged in a statistically distributed manner, wherein the material is formed by individual fibers of a material which is transparent to X-ray radiation. 15. A medical X-ray device comprising the collimator of claim 14. 16. The collimator as claimed in claim 14, wherein the absorption elements include individual fibers of a material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation. 17. The collimator as claimed in claim 16, wherein the fibers of the material which is absorbent for X-ray radiation, include a fiber diameter of 0.2 mm.
