Utilizing NeuroLogica’s proprietary detector technology, the OmniTom Elite PCD(Photon Counting Detector) can directly measure the energy of incident x-ray photons as an electric charge cloud relevant to the x-ray photon attenuation coefficient of tissue through which the x-rays have passed. A PCD captures the X-ray photon directly at the detector and directly converts the energy to electrical signals.
This is different than conventional energy integrating detector (EID) in current CT scanners, which converts the photons to light and then electrical signals.
This new technology can enable clinicians to make a more confident diagnosis due to the improved clinical information. Conventional energy integrating detectors provide average attenuation coefficients, whereas photon counting detectors measure energy-dependent attenuation characteristics and then provide compositional information for individual materials in the body.
The mobile PCD-CT was built by combining two key technologies for the first time: portability and photon counting.
