Abstract
A radiation detection/imaging system includes a first set of radiation detectors spaced from each other in a first direction and a second set of radiation detectors spaced from each other in the first direction. The second set of radiation detectors is positioned laterally adjacent the first set of radiation detectors and the radiation detectors of the first and second sets of radiation detectors are arranged in an alternating or staggered pattern in the first direction. A composite image can be formed of the passage of radiation through an object acquired by the first and second sets of radiation detectors as the object is translated by the first and second sets of radiation detectors.
