The detector measures the scattered or fluorescent light of a liquid suspension using a single-, or multi-mode optical fibre (8). The fibre has a gradient index lens at its output end, for providing a parallel light beam, focussed onto a point within the suspension via a focussing lens (12). A second optical fibre (10) is coupled to a photodetector (7). Several optical fibres are coupled to the p...

The present invention, in one form, is a system for obtaining data measurement signals for producing a tomographic image of an object in a multislice scan. More specifically, detector cells in at least one channel of a detector array are electrically coupled, or ganged, so that the ganged channel provides one data measurement signal to be transmitted through the gantry slip ring. The signal distri...
