Abstract

The present specification discloses an inspection system for detecting objects being carried by a person. The inspection system is highly modular and capable of being assembled by a two person team using conventional tooling equipment. In one embodiment, the inspection system has three primary modules two detection modules and one radiation source module that can be readily attached and detached from each other or to a frame and connected to a signal processing system to provide for a quick set up and tear down process.
