<p>The general field of the invention includes methods of calibrating X-ray detection systems, the systems including at least one X-ray generator and a detection array having a matrix of detecting semiconductor pixels and processing and calibration electronics. The calibration method includes, for all or some of the pixels: operating the X-ray generator at its nominal high voltage, the generator being placed opposite the detector; counting, using the processing and calibration electronics, the pulses emitted by each pixel through the effect of the radiation produced by the generator; establishing, for each pixel, an amplitude distribution for the counted pulses; applying, to each amplitude distribution, a statistical indicator so as to identify a particular amplitude, this particular amplitude then corresponding to the energy corresponding to said statistical indicator; and adjusting, using the processing and calibration electronics, calibration parameters for each pixel, taking account of the energy-amplitude relationship thus established.</p> |
