Methods may be provided to operate an imaging system using a contact imaging probe to generate imaging of a body. A robotic actuator may be controlled to position the contact imaging probe at a first location on a surface of the body such that the contact imaging probe is in a first radial alignment with an imaging isocenter. The robotic actuator may then be controlled to position the contact imaging probe at a second location on the surface of the body such that the contact imaging probe is in a second radial alignment with the imaging isocenter. Moreover, the first and second radial alignments may be different.
