Abstract
An X-ray detector includes a scintillation crystal and a photosensor which is easily manipulated, easily positionable, and easy to contact to the scintillation crystal. The photosensor is arranged on a thin lamina having electrical contact surfaces. The lamina presses laterally against the scintillation crystal such that the photosensor covers the scintillation crystal, and the contact surfaces of the lamina are connected to corresponding contact surfaces on the scintillation crystal, or on a scintillation carrier.
