Abstract
The present disclosure proposes a security inspection equipment and a radiation detection method, and relates to the field of security inspection. The security inspection equipment according to the present disclosure includes: a ray emitter; and a radiation detector comprising a forescatter detector, the forescatter detector and the ray emitter located on opposite sides of an object to be detected; wherein the radiation detector further comprises at least one of the following detectors: a backscatter detector located between the ray emitter and the object to be detected; or a transmission detector wherein the transmission detector and the ray emitter located on opposite sides of an object to be detected. Such a security inspection equipment has a forescatter detector, which can be used in combination with backscatter detector, to reduce detection dead angles.
