ABSTRACT:
A computed tomography apparatus according to the invention ha a rotor that is produced at least in segments from a composite material with metal matrix reinforced with particles. Composite materials with a polymer matrix reinforced with particles have high specific strength properties and rigidity properties with simultaneously low material usage, such that high rotation speeds of the rotor can be achieved without negatively affecting the image quality in generated tomographical images.
