Stationary inspection system for three-dimensional imaging employing electronic modulation of spectral data from Compton-scattered gammas

摘要

An inspection system according to various embodiments can include a stationary mono-energetic gamma source and a detector-spectrometer. The detector-spectrometer is configured to employ a modulation of energy bin boundaries within a multi-channel pulse height analyzer to encode voxels within the inspected object, and apply an analysis to determine the three-dimensional density image of the inspected object.
