    摘要: An imaging system includes a conveyor duct including a first wall and an opposing second wall, a gantry coupled to one end of the conveyor duct, an imaging assembly associated with the gantry, and a conveyor assembly coupled to the conveyor duct. The conveyor assembly includes a first rail coupled to the first wall of the conveyor duct and a second rail coupled to the second wall of the conveyor duct, the first rail and the second rail defining a channel therebetween. The imaging system also includes a tray including a base, wherein the conveyor assembly is configured to transport the tray into the gantry, and wherein the base of the tray extends between and below the first rail and the second rail when the conveyor assembly is transporting the tray.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to scanning intermodal containers and system and methods thereof. In particular, this disclosure relates to screening intermodal container without disconnecting it from a straddle carrier use to move them about a port or intermodal area. In embodiments, a system includes one or more scanners position on a side of a pair of track opposite a side used to support the straddle carrier. The respective tracks are spaced sufficiently apart so an intermodal container can be positioned (lowered) between the tracks to be passed by the scanners while it remains attached to the straddle carrier.

    摘要: A method for correctly identifying at least one source, in particular at least one nuclide, enclosed in a human body and/or a container, is provided, the method comprising the following steps: detecting and measuring the at least one source by means of a gamma spectroscopic device; identifying, in a first estimation step, the at least one source by means of a standard nuclide identification procedure for evaluating a measured first spectrum of the at least one source; applying a second estimation step on the basis of the result of the first estimation step, wherein the result of the first estimation step is used for acquiring a plurality of second spectra of the at least one source found by the standard nuclide identification procedure for a plurality of absorption scenarios and for a plurality of scattering scenarios; and comparing the measured first spectrum with a scatter and absorber spectrum obtained from the plurality of second spectra generated in the second estimation step.
