Problems solved by technology

Another drawback of fourth-generation CT scanners is due to the non-uniformity of the X-ray geometry
However, this covers only a limited range of projection angles, so reconstruction of the complete tomographic image is not possible with tomosynthesis imaging

Abstract

A scanner device (100) for computed tomography imaging of an object (1), comprises a measurement device (10) including a source device (20) arranged for irradiating the object (1) with at least one beam (2) and a detector device (30) arranged for detecting radiation transmitted through the object (1), wherein the source device (20) has a fixed position relative the detector device (30), and a carrier device (40) accommodating the object (1) in a position between the source device (20) and the detector device (30), wherein the measurement device (10) and the carrier device (40) are capable of a scanning movement relative to each other, and the measurement device (10) and the carrier device (40) have a fixed spatial orientation during the scanning movement. Furthermore, a scanning method for computed tomography imaging of an object is described.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a scanner device for performing computed tomography (CT) imaging on a target object, in particular to a scanner device comprising a measuring device with source and detector devices and a carrying device for accommodating the target object, In this case the measuring device and the carrier device can be moved relative to each other in a scanning manner. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a scanning method for performing CT imaging of an object. Scanner devices and scanning methods can be used for all applications of CT imaging, especially in the fields of material science, medical examination, construction technology, technology concerning safety issues, etc. Background technique [0002] CT imaging is based on the irradiation of the object to be investigated. The X-rays generated by the source device are used to irradiate the sampling plane from different projection directions, and then the sampling plane i...
