摘要

X-ray collimators, and related systems involving such collimators are provided. In this regard, a representative X-ray collimator includes: a first member (122) having channels (130,132) located on a surface (128) thereof; and a second member (120) having protrusions (136,138) located on a surface (126) thereof; the first member and the second member being oriented such that the protrusions extend into the channels to define collimator apertures, each of the collimator apertures being defined by a portion of the first member and a portion of the second member.
