Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Described herein is a high-energy x-ray imaging system including a stationary gantry, a conveyor assembly configured to convey an object to be imaged through the gantry, a plurality of linear accelerators, a detector array, and a control system. The linear accelerators are arranged in an array within the gantry and are configured to generate high-energy x-ray fan beams to be transmitted through the object. The detector array is positioned opposite the linear accelerators and is configured to collect the high-energy x-ray fan beams transmitted through the object. The control system is configured to energize the linear accelerators according to a predetermined control sequence to generate the high-energy x-ray fan beams, and construct a 3-D image of the object based on data received from the detector array and representative of the high-energy x-ray fan beams transmitted through the object.
