Photon Counting Detector Technology

OmniTom®
Elitewith PCD

OmniTom® Elite PCD is a sub-configuration of
OmniTom® Elite with Photon Counting Detectors.
All OmniTom mobile CT scanners were designed with
upgradeability to PCD in mind.

Advanced Imaging at Point-of-Care

OmniTom®
Elite

Revolutionary mobile 16-slice CT scanner delivers
high-quality non-contrast, CT angiography,
and CT perfusion scans at the patients' bedside.

NEW OmniTom® Elite with PCD

Utilizing NeuroLogica’s proprietary detector technology, the OmniTom Elite PCD(Photon Counting Detector) can directly measure the energy of incident x-ray
photons as an electric charge cloud relevant to the x-ray photon attenuation coefficient of tissue through which the x-rays have passed.
A PCD captures the X-ray photon directly at the detector and directly converts the energy to electrical signals.
This is different than conventional energy integrating detector (EID) in current CT scanners, which converts the photons to light and then electrical signals.
This new technology can enable clinicians to make a more confident diagnosis due to the improved clinical information. Conventional energy integrating detectors provide average attenuation coefficients, whereas photon counting detectors measure energy-dependent attenuation characteristics
and then provide compositional information for individual materials in the body.
The mobile PCD-CT was built by combining two key technologies for the first time: portability and photon counting.
