Abstract:
A method for image acquisition includes selectively concealing and exposing an X-ray source to a target object while the X-ray source travels along a first path and moving an X-ray detector along a second path in a first direction while the X-ray source is exposed to the target object. The method further includes moving the X-ray detector along the second path in a second direction generally opposite the first direction while the X-ray source is concealed from the target object.

Claim (Index 9):
An apparatus for X-ray image acquisition, comprising:\n an X-ray source moveable about a first path with reference to a target object; an X-ray detector moveable about a second path with reference to the target object; and a controller configured to selectively expose the X-ray source to the target object and conceal the X-ray source from the target object while the X-ray source is travelling about the first path, and move the X-ray detector along the second path in a first direction while the X-ray source is exposed, and in a second direction, generally opposite to the first, when the X-ray source is concealed.
