Abstract:

Photon-counting detectors are a promising new technology for computed tomography (CT) systems. They provide energy-resolved CT data at very high spatial resolution without electronic noise and with improved tissue contrasts. This review article gives an overview of the principles of photon-counting detector CT, of potential clinical benefits and limitations, and of the experience gained so far in pre-clinical installations.

Computed Tomography

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
