Abstract

A computed tomography apparatus has an apparatus that rotates during the operation off the CT apparatus, and except for a detector system for the detection of measurement data, all components that are necessary for the generation of image data from the measurement data are arranged on this apparatus part. A reduced data transmission rate results therefrom given the data transmission from the rotating apparatus part to a stationary apparatus part, with the consequence that the outlay that is expended in conjunction with the data transmission is reduced.
