The authors explain that a photon-counting imaging detector can realize quantitative analysis because the detector can derive X-ray attenuation information based on the analysis of intensity changes of individual X-ray. To realize this analysis, it is important to consider the physics of an object and detector material. In this book, the authors introduce a novel analytical procedure to create quantitative X-ray images for medical diagnosis. Provides a detailed explanation of the principle of imaging using an energy integrating detector (EID) which is currently being used as an X-ray imaging detector in medicine; Provides a single-source reference that enables readers to understand photon-counting techniques, including the underlying basic physics, specific physics of the detector, novel analytical procedure and future scope; Includes necessary background information and state-of-the-art applications; Demonstrates procedure using a simulation study and a proto-type imaging detector; Presents information in a manner which makes it easier for readers to reproduce results. 606 $aPhoton detectors 615 0$aPhoton detectors. 676 $a539.77 700 $aHayashi$b Hiroaki$01226309 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484580303321 996 $aPhoton counting detectors for x-ray imaging$92847379 997 $aUNINA
