1. A detector arrangement for detecting X-rays, comprising at least one low energy detector, and at least one high energy detector arranged downstream, where individual energy ranges of the X-ray are emitted at the same time on an object through which X-rays are passed and are attenuated in the process, wherein the low energy detector has as a detector material a scintillator comprising at least one element with an atomic number of 30 to 40, but not containing any element having a larger atomic number, said detector material being coordinated with a detector material of the high energy detector, and the latter detector material is a ceramic scintillator containing at least one element with an atomic number greater than 60.
