The computed tomography device has a gantry with an opening and a radiation protection apparatus for covering the opening. The radiation protection apparatus includes a radiation protection cover and a pivoting apparatus, wherein an object under examination may be inserted into the opening along a system axis of the gantry when the radiation protection cover is in a first position relative to the gantry. The radiation protection cover is pivotably mounted relative to the gantry about a pivot axis by the pivoting apparatus such that a first pivoting motion of the radiation protection cover about the pivot axis enables the radiation protection cover to be lowered relative to the gantry from the first position to a second position. The computed tomography device may furthermore include at least one of a lighting system or a camera system.
