1. An X-ray system comprising:

  • a plurality of detectors for generating raw X-ray data;

    a scan engine coupled to the plurality of detectors for receiving the raw X-ray data and generating calibrated X-ray data;

    an image reconstruction engine coupled to the scan engine for converting the calibrated X-ray data into one or more processed X-ray images; and

    a scan controller coupled with said plurality of detectors and at least one of said scan engine or image reconstruction engine, wherein said scan controller receives said raw X-ray data and dynamically modulates processing of at least one of said raw X-ray data by said scan engine or said calibrated X-ray data by said image reconstruction engine, wherein the scan controller dynamically modulates the processing of said raw X-ray data or calibrated X-ray data by analyzing the raw X-ray data or calibrated X-ray data and identifying one or more regions comprising required information.
