Abstract

A medical imaging system for providing X-ray image data of an object including at least one X-ray detector, an X-ray source arrangement, and a patient configured to receive an object for imaging a region of interest of the object. The at least one X-ray detector is movably mounted above the patient table; and the at least one X-ray detector and the X-ray source arrangement are movable independently. The X-ray source arrangement includes a physical trajectory support structure and is configured to provide X-ray radiation to the region of interest from a number of positions forming a concave open trajectory, wherein a portion of the trajectory and/or the physical trajectory support structure is located below the patient table; and wherein two end regions of the trajectory are extending on the two lateral sides of above the table.
