<p>An imaging system suitable for use with high energy nuclear particles or photons such as gamma radiation and X-radiation. The system provides means for illuminating an object with radiation as well as spatially coding the illuminating radiation or emitted radiation if the object is self-luminous, to provide a composite image representing the summation of the shadows from all points of the source of illumination. Spatial modulation is accomplished by a mask having a coded pattern of transparent and opaque regions linearly scanned in time. The resulting signal has the characteristics of a chirp waveform typical of pulse compression radars. The composite image is readily decoded by a delay line having a phase or delay characteristic complementary to that of the spatial modulation pattern.</p> |
