2016 
The present invention relates to medical imaging, and in particular a medical imaging detector. In order to improve and facilitate the collection of information, e.g. for medical diagnosis, a medical imaging detector is provided that comprises a first sensor arrangement (12) and a second sensor arrangement (14). The first sensor arrangement is configured to provide a first type of image data belonging to a first imaging modality. The second sensor arrangement is configured to provide a second type of image data belonging to a second imaging modality. The first imaging modality is an X-ray imaging modality, while the second imaging modality is a non-X-ray imaging modality. The first sensor arrangement comprises one or a plurality of first sensor segments (16) arranged within a first circumferential line (18) defining a first imaging area (20). The second sensor arrangement comprises one or a plurality of second sensor segments (22) arranged within a second circumferential line (24) defining a second imaging area (26). The first imaging area and the second imaging area at least partly overlap.
