ABSTRACT:
A computerized tomography system includes a detector array made up of a set of detector subelements aligned along a slice thickness direction. A controllable switching matrix selectively interconnects a predetermined number of successive detector subelements to a respective summing amplifier to produce slice-constituent signals which measure a respective slice positioned to pass through a body. Each respective slice having a selectable thickness in a region of interest to be imaged.
