Abstract
A system for recording CT data of an object in an object area (4) comprises an X-ray source (5) and an X-ray detector (6) at either side of the object area. The X-ray detector comprises a stack of elongated detector array arrangements (6a) arranged in parallel and provided for detecting X-rays (9a) from the X-ray source transmitted through the object, thus recording images of the object. A device (10a) is provided for rotating the X-ray source (5) and the X-ray detector (6) around an axis of rotation which is parallel with the elongated detector array arrangements, while the elongated detector array arrangements are provided for imaging the object repeatedly. Further, either the elongated detector array arrangements are moved within the X-ray detector or the axis of rotation is moved during the rotation to thereby provide for the elongated detector array arrangements to record the CT data.
