Claim:
A CT system comprising: an x-ray source capable of wobbling a focal spot to a first source position and to a second source position within a view; an x-ray detector having an array of pixels, said detector including a plurality of scintillators arranged to release light to the array of pixels, each pixel comprising a first and a second charge storage device disposed on the pixel surface, the first charge storage device configured to receive a charge generated in a corresponding pixel when the focal spot is wobbled to the first source position, and the second charge storage device configured to receive a charge generated in the corresponding pixel when the focal spot is wobbled to the second source position; a DAS connected to receive electrical signals from the array of pixels; and a controller configured to alternately connect the first and the second charge storage devices of each of the array of pixels to the DAS such that only one of the first and the second charge storage devices of each pixel collects charge at a time.
