Abstract: CT system including: an X-ray source and an X-ray detector arranged opposite the X-ray source, wherein the X-ray detector and the X-ray source may be mutually rotated around at least one rotation center through a rotator, wherein the distances between the at least one rotation center and the X-ray source and between the at least one rotation center and the X-ray detector are different.

Abstract: The present invention provides a transceiver (1) for a local lighting system (L1), preferably a local lighting system based on the DALI-2 industry standard, comprising a bus (2) and a control unit (3) electrically connected to the bus (2) for controlling communication via the bus (2). The transceiver (1) comprises a transmitter (1a) configured to transmit wireless signals to a global lighting system (14) comprising one or more luminaires (L2 . . . LN), a receiver (1b) configured to receive wireless signals from the global lighting system (14), and a processing unit (1c) configured to process the received wireless signals from the global lighting system (14). The processing unit (1c) of the transceiver (1) is configured to convert the received wireless signals into bus signals such that the transceiver (1) behaves as an input device of the local lighting system (L1) when electrically connected to the bus (2).
