Photon counting has gained significant momentum in x-ray imaging the last years. It continues to be a hot subject at this year’s RSNA as well, with discussions about how photon-counting can be used in different modalities.
 “30 years from now all x-ray detectors for medical imaging will be photon counting. Why use any-thing else than the …

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 …
