Illustration of the concept. The standard tight structure of 36 modules x4 rings with axial coverage of 25 cm gets separated into two sparse sections by an axial shift of about 25 cm. After angular rotation of 10 deg the two components form a uniform picket fence 50 cm long. As an example, after position adjustment in the axial coordinate one of the sectors gets compressed by factor ~2 to form high resolution and high sensitivity brain imager. Dynamic imaging of brain plus other organ(s) can be performed. Here is shown example of simultaneous dynamic heart-brain correlation imaging configuration. Other could be brain-spleen, brain-liver, etc
