ABSTRACT:
Methods and systems for imaging a patient using an imaging system is provided. The method includes rotating a detector assembly about an examination axis of the imaging system, maintaining a first detector of the detector assembly at a first distance from the patient while receiving imaging data from the patient, and maintaining a second detector of the detector assembly at a second distance from the patient while receiving imaging data from the patient wherein the second distance is greater than the first distance and wherein the resolution of the imaging data from the first detector is smaller than the resolution of the imaging data from the second detector due to the difference between the first distance and the second distance.
