发明名称 METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING AND PROCESSING DETECTOR POLARIZATION IN PHOTON-COUNTING SPECTRAL X-RAY DETECTORS
摘要 A computed tomography (CT) apparatus and a method for identifying photon-counting detectors that are polarized due to high flux, thereby rendering the photon-counting detector inoperable. The data obtained from the photon-counting detectors that are determined to be polarized is skipped during an image pre-reconstruction phase. The data is further assigned a weight of zero during an image reconstruction phase in order to avoid imaging artifacts in the reconstructed CT image.

主权项 1. A computed-tomography (CT) apparatus, comprising: a plurality of stationary photon-counting detectors configured to capture incident X-ray photons emitted from an X-ray source to obtain projection data; and a processing circuit configured to determine which photon-counting detectors of the plurality of photon-counting detectors were polarized when the projection data was obtained, andassign a weight of zero to the projection data corresponding to the polarized photon-counting detectors during image reconstruction.
