The X-ray imaging unit includes a ring that has an X-ray tube and an X-ray detector and may rotate about the patient aperture. The ring is composed of at least four ring sectors, of which two ring sectors may be detached from the ring and at least two ring sectors are fixed in place. An X-ray detector is arranged on one of the detachable ring sectors, and an X-ray source is arranged on the other of the detachable ring sectors.
