ABSTRACT:
The present invention, in one form, is a system for obtaining data measurement signals for producing a tomographic image of an object in a multislice scan. More specifically, detector cells in at least one channel of a detector array are electrically coupled, or ganged, so that the ganged channel provides one data measurement signal to be transmitted through the gantry slip ring. The signal distribution in the z-direction for the ganged channel is then determined using signals obtained by adjacent non-ganged detector cells.
