A setup for time‐resolved scanning transmission X‐ray microscopy imaging is presented, which allows for an increase in the temporal resolution without the requirement of operating the synchrotron light source with low‐α optics through the measurement of the time‐of‐arrival of the X‐ray photons. Measurements of two filling patterns in hybrid mode of the Swiss Light Source are presented as a first proof‐of‐principle and benchmark for the performances of this new setup. From these measurements, a temporal resolution on the order of 20–30 ps could be determined.
