Patent
Systems and methods for imaging large field-of-view objects
TL;DR: An imaging apparatus and related method comprising a detector located a distance from a source and positioned to receive a beam of radiation in a trajectory, a detector positioner that translates the detector to an alternate position in a direction that is substantially normal to the trajectory, and a beam positioner which alters the trajectory of the radiation beam to direct the beam onto the detector located at the alternate position is described in this paper.
Patent
Systems and methods for quasi-simultaneous multi-planar x-ray imaging
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a system for obtaining two-dimensional images of an object, such as a patient, in multiple projection planes using a single radiation source, which can be used for medical x-ray imaging.
Patent
Gantry positioning apparatus for x-ray imaging
TL;DR: In this paper, a robotically controlled five degree-of-freedom x-ray gantry positioning apparatus, which is connected to a mobile cart, ceiling, floor, wall, or patient table, is disclosed.
Patent
Cantilevered gantry apparatus for x-ray imaging
TL;DR: An x-ray scanning imaging apparatus with a rotatably fixed generally O-shaped gantry ring, which is connected on one end of the ring to support structure, such as a mobile cart, ceiling, floor, wall, or patient table, in a cantilevered fashion is described in this paper.
Patent
Breakable gantry apparatus for multidimensional x-ray based imaging
TL;DR: An x-ray scanning imaging apparatus with a generally O-shaped gantry ring, which has a segment that fully or partially detaches (or “breaks”) from the ring to provide an opening through which the object to be imaged may enter interior of the ring in a radial direction as mentioned in this paper.
