A method for providing corrected x-ray images of a recording object and a correspondingly configured x-ray system are provided. In the method, a first x-ray image recorded prior to introducing a contrast agent and a second x-ray image of the recording object recorded after introducing the contrast agent are provided. A ring correction for eliminating ring artifacts is applied to the first x-ray image and the second x-ray image in each case. In order to provide corrected x-ray images with an improved image quality, provision is made with the ring correction of the first x-ray image for a ring image, which contains artifact data extracted from the first x-ray image, to be obtained and stored and for the ring correction of the second x-ray image for the ring image obtained with the ring correction of the first x-ray image to be used.
