Abstract
There is provided a method for scanning of an object in a scanning apparatus. The method comprises placing the object into a jacket which surrounds the object or a part of the object to be scanned. The volume of the jacket surrounding the object is solid or filled with a filling material. The jacket is disposed on a support of the scanning apparatus, so that the jacket is positioned between an imaging beam emitting element and an imaging beam receiving element oppositely disposed to either side of the support. The support is rotatable relative to the emitting and receiving elements about an axis of rotation to allow creation of an image from projections each taken at a different relative angle of rotation. The method further comprises operating the scanning apparatus at the multiple relative angles of rotation to produce an image of the object.
