Abstract :
A new scanning method for obtaining cross sectional images of three-dimensional objects is described in this paper. The scanner is similar to socalled fan beam CT using multiple x-ray detectors. In the scanning system described here, the x-ray sensitivity errors of the detectors do not affect the reconstructed images, and scanning time less than 30 seconds can be easily achieved.
