X-ray backscatter technology (XBT) is a method of obtaining the spatial density distribution of an object by irradiating it with X-rays and measuring the intensity distribution of scattered X-rays. X-ray backscatter is conducted by collecting the radiation which is scattered from a sample illuminated by a well-defined X-ray beam, and the technique enables objects to be scanned at a sub-surface level using single-sided access, and without the requirement for coupling with the sample. This technique has been applied in the fields of security (e.g. screening passengers at airports, as well as trucks and cars), and aerospace, plus has potential applications in many others such as oil and gas drilling and food inspection. The global handheld backscatter x-ray imager market is likely to register a CAGR of over 5.6% with an incremental growth of USD 23.9 million during the forecast period 2022-2028.
