Scatter-induced non-linear signal compression and SDNR loss in triple-energy photon-counting iodine imaging.

Triple-energy x-ray imaging with photon-counting detectors (PCDs) enables material decomposition, but energy-dependent scatter introduces bin-specific distortions that propagate nonlinearly through triple-energy subtraction and degrade image quality. The purpose of this work is to quantify how bin-dependent scatter alt...
