title = "Charge sharing correction for photon counting detectors with coincidence counters",
abstract = "One of the challenges for photon counting detector (PCD)-based computed tomography (CT) is spectral distortion due to charge sharing (CS). We recently proposed multi-energy inter-pixel coincidence counter (MEICC), which uses energy-dependent coincidence counters (CCs) between each PCD pixel and its neighboring pixels and records coincident events via charge sharing during data acquisition. Previous studies have shown that the performance of MEICC is as good as other technologies including digital count summing (DCS) scheme. In this study, we develop an algorithm that uses MEICC PCD output to create CS-corrected data. The performance of the method is assessed using a Monte Carlo (MC) simulation.",
