Abstract
An arrangement includes a stationary part of a gantry of a computed tomography scanner and a first rotating part of the gantry of the computed tomography scanner. The first rotating part and the stationary part are connectable to one another via a bearing assembly such that the first rotating part is arranged in a bearing position relative to the stationary part and is mounted via the bearing assembly such that it is rotatable about a system axis. The first rotating part and the stationary part are connectable to one another via a holding apparatus such that the first rotating part is arranged in a holding position relative to the stationary part independently of the bearing assembly. In both the bearing position and the holding position, a central opening of the first rotating part and a central opening of the stationary part are arranged about the system axis.
