Zusammenfassung:A diagnosis device, in particular an x-ray device, includes a patient couch which is rotatably mounted on a carrier device as well as a diagnosis unit, which is likewise mounted on the carrier device and can be moved along a longitudinal direction in parallel to the patient couch by a motor drive and an adjustment mechanism. A measuring device for measuring a measurement signal of a measured variable correlated with the drive force is provided in order to promptly identify a collision between the diagnosis unit and a patient mounted on the patient couch. A control unit is provided to evaluate the measurement signal. The control unit is designed in order to trigger a reaction when a predetermined value in respect of the measurement signal is exceeded.
