Zusammenfassung:A system for and method of detecting and classifying objects contained within or concealed by items scanned by an X-ray scanner is described. Greater throughput and relatively reduced cost is achieved by using a shared bulk memory for entering imaging data received from the scanner into slots of a bulk shared memory; and storing detection and classification data in slots of the bulk memory after processing imaging data so as to provide detection and classification data relating to absence or suspected presence of predetermined target objects. Preferably, the scanner is a CT scanner and the imaging data is CT data.
