One of nu:view’s key technologies: a unique detector. The groundbreaking innovation is the result of AB-CT’s long-term collaboration with Varex Imaging, a global expert in quality detector solutions. The special, concavely shaped single photon counting hybrid detector made of highly sensitive material (CdTe) converts x-rays directly into electrical signals. Using the photon counting and energy thresholding capability, it features an unrivalled combination of geometric and absorption efficiency in clinical breast imaging. The resulting images are of truly impressive levels of detail and can be...
