Abstract
This study aims to propose a novel method for multi-beam tomosynthesis using a single-beam X-ray source based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and compact vacuum CNT-based X-ray tubes are arranged on a 3D hemispherical curve. The proposed method enables each member of a multi-beam X-ray gantry to face the center of the same field of view (FOV), which has potential applications in medical imaging. This study evaluates the feasibility of our proposed method and its potential advantages over existing methods.
