MX1: This year’s Achievements Patents Lodged for New Imaging Modality

==> picture [257 x 225] intentionally omitted <==

  • The x-ray beam can be modulated because the CNT x-ray tube is electronically controlled

  • Beam modulation can be used in an array for beam steering and for getting distance information

  • Thus single viewpoint 3-dimensional imaging is possible

  • Ø Beamforming can concentrate X-ray dose in small focal point away from array.

  • Ø By focusing the X-rays within an object the coherent scatter can be measured.

  • Ø Coherent scatter uniquely identifies a material.

  • Ø Security Applications: More accurate discrimination of threat items from 3D view

  • Ø Medical Applications: Tissue biopsies with X-rays
