Since diagnostic X-rays have been proven to be a cause of cancer, some precautions are essential to reduce the dose delivered to patients. In this paper, an idea to reduce the dose by a new type of X-ray computed tomography (CT) using silicon strip detectors is discussed. Thin tungsten plates placed between edge-on silicon strip detectors are the key element to reduce the background of scattered X-rays and improve the image contrast with low dose. The initial results of a feasibility study are also reported.
