Title:
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING SIGNALS OF A RADIATION DETECTOR WITH SEMICONDUCTORS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1998036579
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system for processing signals from a radiation detector with semiconductors. A plurality of elementary detectors are placed side-by-side along a detection surface or a detection volume in which radiation referred to as incident radiation is capable of giving up its energy in at least one interaction. The device includes the supplying in response to each incident ray, an amount of energy corresponding to the sum of the energies given up during each interaction induced by the incident radiation. This device may be used in medical imaging.
