X-RAY SYSTEM

摘要

An X-ray system comprising a scanning beam X-ray source (100) configured to project at least one X-ray beam (128) in a generally upward direction. When the generated X-rays (128) are scattered, they are scattered in a direction predominantly away from X-ray sensitive areas of attending staff. The unscattered X-rays (128) are subsequently received at a detector (136) and an image is reconstructed.
