Abstract: An x-ray imaging system includes an x-ray source, an x-ray detector including a plurality of detector strips arranged in a first direction of the x-ray detector. Each detector strip includes a plurality of detector pixels arranged in a second direction of the x-ray detector. A phase grating and a plurality of analyzer gratings including grating slits are disposed between the x-ray source and detectors. The x-ray source and the x-ray detector are adapted to perform a scanning movement in relation to an object in the first direction, in order to scan the object. Each of the plurality of analyzer gratings is arranged in association with a respective detector strip with the grating slits arranged in the second direction. The grating slits of the analyzer gratings of the detector strips are offset relative to each other in the second direction.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for controlling exposure in an e-ray apparatus, for depicting an object. The apparatus comprises an x-ray source and a displaceable detector being arranged to move with a controllable speed across an image exposure area. The method comprises the step of: acquiring a signal relating to photons incident on at least a part of the detector, comparing said acquired signal with a target value, and controlling the speed of detector, displacement with respect to the result of the comparison.
