Abstract
However, this requires additional collimating means and this reduces the photon flux applied to the detectors. Due to this, longer measuring times may be required. Furthermore, the geometry is incompatible to known cone-beam CT-scanners. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a cone-beam CSCT scanner is provided using energy resolving detectors with a collimator arranged on the detectors, which allows spatially-resolved reconstruction of the scattering function. Advantageously, this may allow for an improved scanning speed in baggage inspection or medical applications.
