Abstract: The present specification discloses a covert mobile inspection vehicle with a backscatter X-ray scanning system that has an X-ray source and detectors for obtaining a radiographic image of an object outside the vehicle. The system is configured to also simultaneously detect passive radiation. The systems preferably include at least one sensor for determining a distance from at least one of the detectors to points on the surface of the object being scanned, a processor for processing the obtained radiographic image by using the determined distance of the object to obtain an atomic number of each material contained in the object, and one or more sensors to obtain surveillance data from a predefined area surrounding the vehicle.

Abstract: The present specification discloses a portable system for inspecting objects. The system includes a housing adapted to be carried by a vehicle, which houses a metal detector and an X- ray scanner and further includes a deployable boom positioned on a top surface of the housing. Operationally, the system is transported to a location, persons or objects are inspected by the metal detector or X-ray scanner and the boom is deployed to inspect external cargo. The integrated portable checkpoint system provides security screening and inspection equipment with increased operational capabilities in one fully integrated package.

Abstract: The present application is directed toward the generation of three dimensional images in a tomography system having X-ray sources offset from detectors, in particular in a system where the sources are located on a plane, while detectors are located on multiple parallel planes, parallel to the plane of sources and all the planes of detectors lie on one side of the plane of sources. A controller operates to rebin detected X-rays onto a non-flat surface, perform two dimensional reconstruction on the surface, and generate the three dimensional image from reconstructed images on the plurality of surfaces.

Abstract: A crane (10) comprises support means (14) arranged to support a load (12) and to move the load along a path (18), and a scanner (16) comprising a radiation source (44) and radiation detection means (48) arranged to scan a scanning volume (42). The path is arranged to pass through the scanning volume so that the scanner can scan the load as it moves along the path.

Abstract: La presente especificación describe una sonda o dispositivo portátil, compacto que usa el principio de retrodispersión de rayos X para proporcionar retroalimentación inmediata a un operador acerca de la presencia de materiales, artículos u objetos de dispersión u absorción detrás de barreras de ocultamiento irradiadas por radiación ionizante, tal como rayos X. Se proporciona retrodispersión en la forma de un tono audible cambiante por lo que la altura tonal o frecuencia del tono varía dependiendo del tipo de material, artículo u objeto de dispersión. Adicionalmente o de forma alternativa, el operador obtiene una imagen de exploración visual en una pantalla al examinar el haz alrededor de una anomalía o área sospechosa.
