Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating location and size measurements for small scattered objects in a large medium are disclosed.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a first radiation source;
- a first detector configured to:
- detect first radiation from the first radiation source during irradiation of a medium, wherein the medium includes one or more embedded objects;
- a second radiation source oriented substantially orthogonally to the first radiation source;
- a second detector located substantially orthogonally to the first detector configured to:
- detect second radiation from the second radiation source during irradiation of the medium;
- and
- one or more computers and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
- receiving first data from the first detector, the first data associated with the detected first radiation;
- receiving second data from the second detector, the second data associated with the detected second radiation;
- and
- determining a location of at least one of the one or more embedded objects based on the detected first data and the detected second data, the location being relative to the medium.

A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving first data from a first detector, wherein the first detector detects radiation from a first radiation source during irradiation of a medium, wherein the medium includes one or more embedded objects;
- receiving second data from a second detector oriented substantially orthogonally to the first detector, wherein the second detector receives radiation from a second radiation source located substantially orthogonally to the first radiation source during irradiation of the medium;
- and
- determining a location of at least one of the one or more embedded objects based on the received first data and the received second data, the location being relative to the medium.
