Compton scattered X-ray depth visualization, imaging, or information provider
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- at least a portion of at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualizer, imager, or information provider configured to receive an at least one Compton scattered X-ray that has scattered through a substantial scattering depth range to one or more substantial prescribed scattering depths within an at least one matter of an at least a portion of an individual based at least in part on a set of scattering characteristics, the set of scattering characteristics at least partially corresponding to the at least one matter of the least the portion of the individual, the at least the portion of the at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualizer, imager, or information provider being configured for providing an at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualization, imaging, or information providing through one or more visualization, imaging, or information providing depth ranges to one or more visualization, imaging, or information providing prescribed depths into the at least one matter of the least the portion of the individual.

Abstract
One aspect relates to at least a portion of at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualizer, imager, or information provider configured to receive an at least one Compton scattered X-ray that has scattered through a substantial scattering depth range to one or more substantial prescribed scattering depths within an at least one matter of an at least a portion of an individual based at least in part on a set of scattering characteristics, the set of scattering characteristics at least partially corresponding to the at least one matter of the least the portion of the individual; the at least the portion of the at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualizer, imager, or information provider being configured for providing an at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualization, imaging, or information providing through one or more visualization, imaging, or information providing depth ranges to one or more visualization, imaging, or information providing prescribed depths into the at least one matter of the least the portion of the individual.

39. An apparatus, comprising:
-
an at least a portion of an at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualizer, imager, or information provider configured to detect a loss of an X-ray photon energy level resulting at least partially from a scattering of an at least one applied X-ray to form an at least one Compton scattered X-ray that scatters within an at least one matter of an at least one portion of an individual, the at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualizer, imager, or information provider configured to produce at least one detected indication corresponding to the loss of the X-ray photon energy level resulting at least partially from the scattering of the at least one applied X-ray to form the at least one Compton scattered X-ray within the at least one matter of the at least one portion of the individual; and an electrical visualization, imaging, or information providing circuitry coupled to the at least one Compton scattered X-ray visualizer, imager, or information provider to produce at least some prescribed visualization, imaging, or provided information corresponding at least partially to X-ray based characteristics of the at least the one matter of the at least one portion of the individual at least partially responsive to the at least one detected indication. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57)
