Zusammenfassung:A system is provided that includes a gantry, detector units, and at least one processor. The gantry defines a bore. The plural detector units are mounted to the gantry and configured to rotate as a group with the gantry in rotational steps. Each detector unit is configured to acquire imaging information while sweeping about a corresponding axis. The at least one processor is configured to determine a region of interest (ROI) of an object; identify a set of detector units; for the identified set of detector units, determine a sweeping configuration that results in a predetermined percentage of projection pixels receiving information from the ROI; determine a rotational movement configuration for the gantry using the determined sweeping configuration; and control the gantry and the set of detector units to utilize the determined rotational movement and sweeping configurations during acquisition of imaging information.
