Patent attributes
A combined transmission/emission tomography apparatus for generation of tomographic slice images of an examination subject (preferably of a patient), has a supporting structure composed of a stationary stator and a rotor that rotates in operation, with at least one radiation-emitting device and at least one radiation-detecting device mounted on the rotor. The at least one radiation-emitting device and the at least one radiation-detecting device are primary components, and the apparatus has at least one associated supply component for one or more of the primary components. In the rotor all primary components are arranged in one rotation plane and all supply components are arranged outside of the rotation plane.
