Abstract
An X-ray detector includes an anti-scatter grid, an electrode and a converter element for converting X-rays into electrical charges in a stacking arrangement. In an embodiment, the stacking arrangement is externally enclosed by a protective element. The protective element extends in the stacking direction such that an enclosed area is at least arranged between the anti-scatter grid and the converter element and along the entire height of the converter element in the stacking direction. An adhesive element is arranged between the anti-scatter grid and the electrode.
