Abstract
An imaging system for generating three dimensional image data using X-ray backscattering from one side of a structure is provided. The imaging system includes at least one X-ray source, at least one rotating collimator coupled to the at least one X-ray source, an X-ray detector, and a controller coupled to the at least one X-ray source, the at least one rotating collimator and the X-ray detector. The controller is configured to emit X-rays from the at least one X-ray source through the at least one rotating collimator towards the one side of the structure. Additionally, the controller is configured to detect backscattered X-rays from the one side of the structure, using the X-ray detector, at a plurality of depths within the structure. Additionally, the controller is configured to generate three dimensional image data of the structure based on the detected backscattered X-rays.
