1. A medical imaging system comprising: a radiation detector configured to scan an object; a rotating part that rotates at least one of said radiation detector and the object with respect to each over an angular range, the detector scanning over a first discrete continuous acquisition range having a first start angle and a first end angle, and a second discrete continuous acquisition range having a second start angle and a second end angle, and a third discrete continuous acquisition range having a third start angle and a third end angle, wherein the first end angle and the second start angle are separated by a first unsampled angular range, and wherein the second end angle and the third start angle are separated by a second unsampled angular range, which is separated from the first unsampled angular range.
