Abstract

See full text

An X-ray filter assembly is disclosed having a stack of X-ray attenuating sheets that are angled so as to have a focus point. When implemented in an imaging system, the focus point of the filter assembly is spatially offset (e.g., behind) the X-ray emission location. The filter assembly may be used (e.g., translated, rotated, and so forth) to adjust the intensity profile of the X-rays seen in an imaging volume.
