1. An inspection system, comprising:

  • a radiation scanner configured to emit a radiation beam along a radiation trajectory;

    a plurality of filters comprising at least two filters selectably positionable into the radiation trajectory so that at least one of the at least two filters receives at least a portion of the radiation of the radiation beam and passes attenuated radiation, wherein the at least two filters respectively have different attenuation characteristics;

    a radiation detector configured to receive the attenuated radiation and configured to produce detection data associated with an energy intensity of the attenuated radiation, wherein the received attenuated radiation is backscattered; and

    a rendering system configured to create a composite image of a specimen disposed along the radiation trajectory using the detection data from the attenuated radiation passed through the at least two filters.
