Further embodiments include x-ray imaging systems, external beam radiation treatment systems having an integrated x-ray imaging system, and methods therefor.

Various methods and systems are provided for stationary CT imaging. In one embodiment, a method for an imaging system includes activating a plurality of emitters of a stationary distributed x-ray source unit to emit x-ray beams toward an object within an imaging volume, where the x-ray source unit does not rotate around the imaging volume, receiving attenuated x-ray beams with one or more detector arrays to form a sparse view projection dataset, where each attenuated x-ray beam generates a different view, and reconstructing an image from the sparse view projection dataset using a sparse view reconstruction method.

A CPU specifies whether or not a structure of a specific shape having transmittance of radiation lower than a patient is present in an imaging region of a radioscopy apparatus that captures a radiographic image with the radiation emitted from a radiation source, based on the specific shape. The CPU performs control for setting an imaging region excluding the structure as the imaging region before irradiation of the radiation is performed from the radiation source in a case where the structure is present.

Hybrid detection systems and methods for C-arm interventional x-ray systems are provided. The hybrid detection system can have a changeable x-ray detection system that is coupled to an integrated within a C-arm x-ray imaging system. The changeable x-ray detector system can include an energy-integrating x-ray detector, and a photon-counting x-ray detector. The C-arm x-ray imaging system using only one detector at a time to acquire x-ray imaging data.

A mobile X-ray system includes a movable base, a robotic arm mounted on the movable base, an X-ray source attached to the robotic arm, a radiation detector, one or more user interfaces, and a controller configured to determine a position of the X-ray source and a position of the detector and to automatically move the base and the robotic arm to align the X-ray source with the detector.

A method for operating a measurement system (100) comprises: generating a beam of electromagnetic radiation (25) directed along a central ray (27) using a radiation source (19); moving the radiation source (19) relative to an object region (35) so that the central ray (27) is directed onto a radiation detector (31) during the movement; wherein the moving of the radiation source (19) relative to the object region (35) comprises: rotating the radiation source (19) about a first axis of rotation (D1), wherein the radiation source (19) is disposed eccentrically to the first axis of rotation (D1); rotating the radiation source (19) about a second axis of rotation (D2), wherein the first axis of rotation (D1) and the second axis of rotation (D2) together enclose an acute angle (α) amounting to at most 80°.
