Abstract

See full text

A computed tomography system comprising an annular x-ray source having a plurality of partial x-ray sources around an examination region and a detector annulus having a plurality of x-ray detectors around an examination region. The computed tomography system is configured to activate the partial x-ray sources individually during a computed tomography scan using a static x-ray source and a static detector annulus to generate absorption profiles of an object in the examination region from a plurality of directions. The computed tomography system is configured to at least one of generate at least a first x-ray spectrum using a first group of the partial x-ray sources and a second x-ray spectrum, distinguishable from the first, using a second group of the partial x-ray sources during the computed tomography scan, or is configured to record an x-ray signal in a spectrally distinguishable manner using the x-ray detectors.
