1. Phase contrast X-ray device (1) for creating a phase contrast image (17) of at least one object (4), with at least one X-ray source (2) for generating an X-radiation (11), that has a specific spatial coherence (15) within a specific optical distance (6) to the X-ray source (2), and at least one evaluation unit (16) for converting the X-radiation (12, 13) after the X-radiation (11) has passed through the object (4) arranged within the optical distance (6) to the X-ray source (2) in the phase contrast image (17) of the object (4), characterized in that the X-ray source (2) shows an output ranging from 50 W up to and including 10 kW and a spatial coherence length (14) of the X-radiation (11) has been selected within the optical distance (6) to the X-ray source (2) ranging from 0,05 μ
