(a) Dual-source CT geometry. (b) A double helix trajectory formed by a helical scan in a dual-source geometry. Because the projection data from source A and source B are never coincident with each other during the helical scan, it is difficult to perform a dual-energy processing in projection data domain. This is one of the reasons why the monochromatic images are currently generated in image space for dual-source CT.
