Claim One:
1. An apparatus for generating images of a subject, comprising: a first energy source emitting first pulses of radiation at a first repetition rate, said first pulses being incident on the subject from a first direction; a first detector disposed to detect said first pulses after said first pulses have interacted with the subject; a second energy source emitting second pulses of radiation at a second repetition rate which is different from said first repetition rate, said second pulses being incident on the subject from a second direction and being temporally interleaved with said first pulses such that said first and second pulses are temporally non-overlapping; a second detector disposed to detect said second pulses after said second pulses have interacted with the subject; and an imaging device for generating images of the subject based on the first and second pulses respectively detected by said first and second detectors.
