We study the dynamic structure factor $S(\vec{q},\omega)$ of superfluid 4He at zero temperature in the roton momentum region and beyond using field-theoretical Green's function techniques. We start from the Gavoret-Nozi\`{e}res two-particle propagator and introduce the concept of quasiparticles. We treat the residual (weak) interaction between quasiparticles as being local in coordinate space and weakly energy dependent. Our quasiparticle model explicitly incorporates the Bose-Einstein condensate. A complete formula for the dynamic susceptibility, which is related to $S (\vec{q},\omega)$, is derived. The structure factor is numerically calculated in a self-consistent way in the special case of a momentum independent interaction between quasiparticles. Results are compared with experiment and other theoretical approaches.
