Abstract
Provided are CT scanning systems and architectures that utilize a unique approach to scanning large objects. Various embodiments of the architecture incorporate a horizontally mounted CT gantry. The horizontal gantry can be raised or stored in a raised position so that a pallet or other object can be moved into a scanning position under the gantry. The gantry is then lowered to enable a quickly executed a scan. Addition objects can be quickly positioned (once the gantry is raised) for subsequent scans allowing for greater throughput than conventional approaches.
