Explore the subject interactively. Master Template HILS2218 | Effective Date: 25 Mar 2022 ? Start Disclaimer Welcome Ceramic scintillator Collimator blades Ti02 based reflector Glue Photo-diodes energy-integrating detectors decreasing pixel size decreasing efficiency Ultra-high resolution comb filter EID approximately 50% dose penalty EID Detector Elements Select 2 answers. Knowledge Check 1 of 2 What are the disadvantages of an EID? ? Reflecting septa create artifacts on reconstructed images. Reflecting septa create dead spaces. Using a UHR comb filter requires a higher radiation dose. There are no disadvantages. Knowledge Check 1 Incorrect The disadvantages of an EID are: Reflecting septa create dead spaces. And using a UHR comb filter requires a higher radiation dose. Continue Correct Continue CdTe Semiconductor PCD Quantum HD PCD Detector Elements EID vs. PCD Imaging Move the slider to see the differences in imaging between an EID and a PCD. Energy-Integrating Detector (EID) Photon-Counting Detector (PCD) Image courtesy of Hospital ICP, Lille, France ? Example of Photon-Counting Imaging Select 2 answers. Knowledge Check 2 of 2 What are the advantages of a PCD? ? Because of the detector material, a crystal semiconductor, there is no need for a UHR comb filter. Because of the detector material, a crystal semiconductor, you still need a UHR comb filter but less radiation. Smaller detector elements create no dead spaces. Smaller detector elements count photons individually. Knowledge Check 2 Incorrect The advantages of a PCD are: Since based on a crystal semi-conductor, there is no need for a UHR comb filter. And smaller detector elements count photons individually.
