HYBRID PASSIVE/ACTIVE MULTI-LAYER ENERGY DISCRIMINATING PHOTON-COUNTING DETECTOR |
| 摘要 |
A photon-counting detector apparatus is configured to receive X-rays transmitted from an X-ray source. The photon-counting detector apparatus includes a first photon-counting detector having a first detecting material configured to detect photons using a first set of energy bins. The photon-counting detector apparatus also includes a second photon-counting detector arranged above the first photon-counting detector relative to an incidence direction of the X-rays transmitted from the X-ray source. The second photon-counting detector has a second detecting material configured to detect photons using a second set of energy bins. The first set of energy bins differs from the second set of energy bins. |

1. A photon-counting detector apparatus configured to receive X-rays transmitted from an X-ray source, the photon-counting detector apparatus comprising:
a first photon-counting detector having a first detecting material configured to detect photons using a first set of energy bins; and a second photon-counting detector arranged above the first photon-counting detector relative to an incidence direction of the X-rays transmitted from the X-ray source, the second photon-counting detector having a second detecting material configured to detect photons using a second set of energy bins, wherein the first set of energy bins differs from the second set of energy bins. |
