Abstract
An imaging system includes components to allow the system to be compact, highly transportable, and capture images in non-conventional settings. An imaging device includes an exoskeleton configured to house and provide structural support for an x-ray source and a detector and a spindle structure protruding from an outer surface of the exoskeleton. The imaging device also includes an x-ray source and a detector affixed to an internal surface of the exoskeleton and a rotation motor configured to rotate the exoskeleton about the spindle structure.
