NON-INTRUSIVE X-RAY INSPECTION APPARATUS WITH STAIR-STEP CONFIGURATION OF X-RAY, DETECTOR MODULES

摘要

In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for mounting a plurality of detector modules (62) to a rotatable gantry structure (16, 40) for an x-ray detection machine. The method comprises mounting the plurality of detector modules end-to-end to define a stair-step configuration in an x-ray detection zone of the rotatable gantry structure (16, 40).
