Computed Tomography Facilitation Method and Apparatus

摘要

A first X-ray detector ( 203 ) is positioned to detect at least the X-rays that intersect the center of rotation ( 201 ) for an object ( 205 ) with respect to an X-ray source ( 202 ). A second X-ray detector ( 207 ) is then positioned to detect X-rays that do not overlap with the X-rays as are detected by the first X-ray detector as well as X-rays ( 210 ) that intersect a periphery of a circle ( 209 ) that circumscribes an outer extreme boundary ( 208 ) of the object to be scanned.
