Patent number: 9107591Abstract: An imaging system includes a radiation source that emits radiation that traverses an examination region. A controller activates the radiation source to emit radiation and deactivates the radiation source to stop radiation emission. The controller selectively activates the radiation source to emit radiation at one or more pre-determined angles. In another embodiment, the imaging system includes a data processing component that generates a virtual three dimensional image of an object of interest of the scanned subject based on the image data. In another embodiment, the imaging system is in a communication with a data manipulation and packaging component that generates at least a two dimensional or a three dimensional data set based on the volumetric image data and packages the data set in an object provided to a remote system that manipulates and navigates through the data set.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2012Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Shlomo Gotman, Udo Van Stevendaal, Peter Forthmann, Holger Schmitt
