A source of medical x-rays based on a 50 Mev storage ring and a quasi-continues picosecond laser is considered. It is shown that such generator produces useful X-ray flux with higher average power and higher efficiency than that of conventional X-ray tubes. The main energy losses are related to coherent synchrotron radiation. Taking this into account the required parameters of the storage ring and injector are determined.
