Photon -counting Reticontm Detector
For applications in faint -object spectroscopy at the Mt. Hopkins Observatory, a photon counting detector has been built using a dual 936 Reticon diode array fibre -optically coupled to a high -gain image intensifier package. The electronic signal processing follows closely the design of Shectman; the diode array is scanned every millisecond, each frame is subtracted from the previous to minimi...
متن کاملClinical Evaluation of a Photon-Counting Tomosynthesis Mammography System
Digital breast tomosynthesis promises solutions to many of the problems currently associated with projection mammography, including elimination of artifactual densities from the superposition of normal tissues and increasing the conspicuity of true lesions that would otherwise be masked by superimposed normal tissue. We have investigated the performance of a novel tomosynthesis system in a clin...
متن کاملA photon counting detector model based on increment matrices to simulate statistically correct CT detector signals
Introduction Energy-selective photon counting (PC) detectors based on CdTe semiconductor sensors are of increasing interest in the medical community amongst others due to their promising CNR enhancing and material decomposition capabilities. While ideal PC detectors would offer dose saving potential compared to today's dual energy CT, in practice they perform worse. Different processes in the s...
متن کاملPhoton counting with a loop detector.
We propose a design for a photon-counting detector that is capable of resolving multiphoton events. The basic element of the setup is a fiber loop, which traps the input field with the help of a fast electro-optic switch. A single weakly coupled avalanche photodiode is used to detect small portions of the signal field extracted from the loop. We analyze the response of the loop detector to an a...
متن کاملEnergy-resolved CT imaging with a photon-counting silicon-strip detector.
Photon-counting detectors are promising candidates for use in the next generation of x-ray computed tomography (CT) scanners. Among the foreseen benefits are higher spatial resolution, better trade-off between noise and dose and energy discriminating capabilities. Silicon is an attractive detector material because of its low cost, mature manufacturing process and high hole mobility. However, it...
