A system (100) includes a stationary gantry (102) and a rotating gantry (104), wherein the rotating gantry is rotatably supported by the stationary gantry. The rotating gantry (104) includes a primary source (110) that emits primary radiation and a detector array (116) having at least one row of detector elements (502) extending along a longitudinal axis. The primary source and the detector array are located opposite each other, across an examination region, and the primary radiation traverses a path (112) between the primary source and the detector array and through an examination region (106) and illuminates the at least one row of detector elements of the detector array, which detects the primary radiation. The system further includes a supplemental source (114), wherein the supplemental source is affixed to a non-rotating portion of the system and emits radiation that traverses a sub-portion of the path and illuminates the at least one row of detector elements of the detector array, which detects the secondary radiation.
