Zusammenfassung:Various methods and systems are provided for stationary CT imaging. In one embodiment, a modular imaging system comprises a plurality of distributed x-ray units releasably coupled to a plurality of detector arrays, with the plurality of distributed x-ray units and the plurality of detector arrays forming a self-supporting structure including a central opening shaped to receive a subject to be imaged. The modular imaging system may image the subject without rotation of the distributed x-ray units or detector arrays around the subject.
