Abstract
A method for examining an object includes the steps of: producing ionizing radiation photons; providing other particles or photons, each of which carrying information regarding position, time, movement direction, and/or energy of a respective one of said ionizing radiation photons before having interacted with said object to be examined; detecting each of said other particles or photons to retrieve said information; having said ionizing radiation photons to interact with said object to be examined; detecting at least some of said ionizing radiation photons after having interacted with said object to retrieve information regarding position, time, movement direction, and/or energy of each of said detected ionizing radiation photons; correlating each of said detected ionizing radiation photons with a respective one of said other particles or photons; and deducing information of said examined object by means of said information as retrieved in the steps of detection.
