X-ray microscopy tomography scanning systems are not constrained by continuous scanning trajectories like in medical scanners. In fact, the source and detector can be held stationary during subsequent image capture producing a discrete sampling pattern. For such systems, a method of producing an optimized, even illumination of the object by choosing source/detector locations on a surface of an imaginary cylinder surrounding the object is disclosed. The locations, in one example, form a regular lattice with even coverage on the surface of that cylinder, rather than at locations along a continuous curve such as a helix. Using this method, the effective pitch may be increased beyond the theoretical limit imposed by helical scanning, allowing a greater range of y-axis coverage for the same number of projection angles, corresponding to an increase in throughput. |
