Imaging system and method.

摘要

An imaging system includes an x-ray source, and means for scanning x-rays from the source through a subject and across the input portion (313 or 360) of an area detector (312 or 353) covering at one time only a fraction of the area detector's input. The area detector produces at its output portion a moving representation of the x-rays being scanned across the input. Means are provided for continuously projecting the moving representation onto a fixed portion of a second stationary discrete solid state detector.
