Abstract
This study explores the potential of using a multi-beam system with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as field emission X-ray sources for next-generation medical and industrial imaging and diagnosis techniques like tomosynthesis. CNTs' ability to withstand high temperatures and digital properties make them ideal for the multi-beam system. Using the multi-beam system with multiple CNT X-ray tubes can achieve faster image acquisition, reduced patient dose, and 3D reconstructed image. Overall, this study demonstrates the need and the advantages of using a multi-beam system with CNT-based X-ray sources for advanced imaging and therapy techniques.
