Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a computer tomograph comprising a detector unit ( 2 ) consisting of a plurality of detectors ( 1 ) for identifying X-ray radiation ( 40 ). According to the invention, the individual detectors ( 1 ) of the detector unit ( 2 ) are configured to receive incident quanta of the X-ray radiation ( 40 ) and to record the received X-ray radiation ( 40 ), both in terms of its intensity and in terms of the quantum energy of the individual X-ray quanta of the received X-ray radiation ( 40 ). The invention also relates to a corresponding method for identifying X-ray radiation by means of a computer tomograph that comprises a detector unit ( 2 ) consisting of a plurality of detectors ( 1 ).
