ABSTRACT:
A computer tomograph system comprises a rotating part for accommodating at least one X-ray tube and a detector arrangement, and a stationary part rotatably supporting the rotating part, and comprising a DC-to-AC converters for generating an alternating current for supplying current to a conductor arrangement. To supply energy to the rotating part, the rotating part comprises at least one inductive coupler for engaging, exclusively in dependence upon position, with a section of the entire length of the conductor arrangement, and for coupling electrical energy out of the conductor arrangement. Alternatively, the conductor arrangement may be disposed on the rotating part, and the inductive coupler may be disposed on the stationary part.
