Abstract
Disclosed is a method of radiography of an organ of a patient, including: a first vertical scanning of the organ by a first radiation source and a first detector cooperating to make a first two dimensional image of the organ, a second vertical scanning of the organ by a second radiation source and a second detector cooperating to make a second two dimensional image of the organ, the first vertical scanning and the second vertical scanning being performed synchronously, the first and second images viewing the organ of the patient according to different angles of incidence, wherein there is a vertical gap between the first source/detector and the second source/detector, such that the first vertical scanning and the second vertical scanning are performed synchronously but with a time shift in between, so as to reduce cross-scattering between the first and second images.
