RSNA: Magnus Åslund, PhD, presented “Evaluation of Photon Counting Spectral Breast Imaging Performance”
November 30th, 2009
A photon-counting spectral detector based on the scanning multislit geometry from Sectra has been developed within the EU-funded Highrex project. It is used in clinical trials to evaluate photon counting tomosynthesis; spectral tomosynthesis; and contrast-enhanced spectral tomosynthesis. A theoretical model of the detector’s spectral performance has been developed and is used to predict the system …
