Usually the results of the experiment on transmitting x-rays through polycapillaries depend strongly on the geometry of the experiment: effective source size, source-capillary distance, etc. A new method of investigating polycapillaries is suggested. This method reduces to minimum the role of exterior geometrical factors and allows to obtain essential transmissional properties of polycapillaries in the x-ray range. The results of measurements provide vast information concerning glass composition, quality of reflecting surfaces, presence of polycapillary small bents, etc.
