Towards the optimal scintillating photon-counting detector
We investigate fast silicon photomultiplier (SiPM)-based scintillation detectors for X-ray photon-counting applications, e.g., photon-counting computed tomography (CT). Such detectors may be an alternative to CdTe/CdZnTe (CZT) and Si detectors, which face challenges related to av

Point spread function of photon-counting detectors under pile-up conditions
A proposed framework
X-ray detectors with photon-counting capabilities promise to revolutionise medical imaging. For an efficient comparison of detectors of various materials and with different setup choices, reliable detector performance measures are needed. The detector point spread function (PSF)

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and X-ray projection radiography are commonly used in the proton therapy workflow for the verification of patient positioning. The prospect of using the CBCT images for dose calculation purposes is attractive but currently hampered by the poor
