Utility of photon-counting detectors for MV-kV dual-energy computed tomography imaging

We demonstrate the potential for improved MV-kV DE CT imaging using non-spectral PCDs and quantify the degree of improvement in a range of object compositions. This work motivates the experimental assessment of PCDs for megavoltage imaging and the potential clinical translation of PCDs to radiotherapy imaging.

Abstract

We demonstrate the potential for improved MV-kV DE CT imaging using non-spectral PCDs and quantify the degree of improvement in a range of object compositions. This work motivates the experimental assessment of PCDs for megavoltage imaging and the potential clinical translation of PCDs to radiotherapy imaging.
