Abstract: Presently disclosed is an x-ray scanning system and method for inspecting an object. The system has a first mobile x-ray scanner configured for scatter imaging and to generate a first compilation of scan data of a first side of the object. A second x-ray scanner is configured for imaging and generating a second compilation of scan data of a second side of the object. A movement device is configured and disposed to move at least one of the first scanner, the second scanner, and the object being scanned, during the scanning of the object. A data integrator is configured and disposed to receive and integrate the first compilation of scan data and the second compilation of scan data.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for create a scanning pencil beam of x-rays and the air cooling of the system. The system has an enclosure with an x-ray beam source disposed therein. An x-ray wheel having or holding an x-ray attenuating ring is disposed proximate to an end of the enclosure and is configured and disposed to rotate the x-ray attenuating ring and form a scanning pencil beam. The system has at least one air inlet and air outlet and at least one air moving device configured and disposed to move air through the air inlet and the air outlet and to air cool the x-ray system.
