Abstract

Un método para inspeccionar objetos basados en tomografía muónica usando muones producidos por rayos cósmicos que comprende: operar un primer escáner de tomografía muónica (310) que incluye detectores de partículas cargadas de detección de posición (7, 8) para realizar un escaneo con imágenes de un objeto (301, 302, 303) bajo inspección por una primera duración de toma de imágenes para obtener una primera imagen de tomografía muónica del objeto entero; procesar la primera imagen de tomografía muónica del objeto entero para obtener información dentro del objeto; estando dicho método caracterizado porque comprende además generar una señal de autorización cuando el procesamiento de la primera imagen de tomografía muónica revela que no hay una región sospechosa dentro del objeto para dejar el escáner de tomografía muónica (310) listo para recibir el próximo objeto para inspección; cuando el procesamiento de la primera imagen de tomografía muónica revela una o más regiones sospechosas dentro del objeto, retirar el objeto del primer escáner de tomografía muónica para colocar el objeto en un segundo escáner de tomografía muónica separado (320) que incluye detectores de partículas cargadas de detección de posición para realizar un escaneo con imágenes del objeto por una segunda duración de toma de imágenes más larga que la primera duración de toma de imágenes para obtener una segunda imagen de tomografía muónica de solo cada región sospechosa del objeto sin tomar imágenes del objeto entero, en donde el segundo escáner de tomografía muónica (320) se configura para que tenga un área de toma de imágenes más pequeña cubierta por los detectores de partículas cargadas de detección de posición del segundo escáner de tomografía muónica (320) para obtener una imagen de solo una porción del objeto; y mientras se opera el segundo escáner de tomografía muónica (320) para inspeccionar adicionalmente el objeto con dicha o dichas regiones sospechosas, se opera el primer escáner de tomografía muónica (310) para recibir un próximo objeto para inspeccionar.
