Abstract
A computer tomography apparatus has an x-ray source with a focus, with the focus being periodically deflected during data acquisition, specifically during mean value formation of the signals obtained by the radiation detector. The mean value formation is not undertaken simultaneously for all detector elements, but instead is undertaken chronologically offset from detector element to detector element. A memory in which the analog measured values available at the end of an interval would be stored is thus not needed.
