Patent attributes
A super-resolution digital tomosynthesis system for imaging an object including a source configured to emit penetrating particles toward an object; a detector configured to acquire a series of projection images of the object in response to the penetrating particles from the source; positioning apparatus configured to position the source and the detector; and an imaging system coupled to the source, the detector, and the positioning apparatus. The imaging system is configured to control the positioning apparatus to position the source in relation to the detector along a scan path and to change a distance between the source and the detector, control the source and the detector to acquire the series of projection images along the scan path with the distance change between the source and detector, and construct a tomographic volume exhibiting super-resolution from data representing the acquired series of projection images.
