This technology has the potential to establish a new standard of care in oncology, cardiology, neurology, and many other clinical CT applications.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nPCCT has the promise to further expand the clinical capabilities of traditional CT, including the visualization of minute details of organ structures, improved tissue characterization, more accurate material density measurement (or quantification) and lower radiation dose. Prismatic Sensors has overcome many challenges working with silicon and patented a novel way to position the silicon sensors \u201cedge on\u201d so the detector is deep enough to absorb very high energy photons and fast enough to count hundreds of millions of CT photons per second. The company was founded in 2012 as a spin-off from KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201c<b>We believe this technology has the potential to be a substantial step forward for CT imaging<\/b> to establish a new standard of care and eventually improve clinical outcomes for millions of patients worldwide,\u201d said Kieran Murphy, President &amp; CEO, GE Healthcare. \u201cFrom the first x-ray machines to the first photon counting CT prototype, GE Healthcare is committed to pioneering next generation technologies to achieve precision health and improve lives. We are excited about this cutting-edge approach with Deep Silicon and its clinical potential.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201c<b>Our research shows Deep Silicon is the best solution for photon counting CT to meet clinical requirements<\/b>,\u201d says Mats Danielsson, PhD, CEO of Prismatic Sensors, \u201cSilicon is by far the purest material produced for use in detectors. Alternative materials, including cadmium-based, will be limited as x-ray detector materials due to their imperfect crystal structure and contaminations. Silicon-based detectors will enable superior spectral resolution without compromising on count rate or spatial resolution. Our collaboration with GE Healthcare has been very productive and together, we have made rapid progress. Now, we look forward to the next chapter as we come together as one team working towards bringing photon counting CT with Deep Silicon detectors to the market.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFor nearly 50 years, CT has proven to be a vital imaging tool used to detect cancer, heart conditions, and other diseases large and small. CT\u2019s clinical use and diagnostic power have rapidly increased with the introduction of volumetric imaging, faster rotation speed, iterative and AI-based image reconstruction, as well as dual energy. Last year, the United States reported an all-time high in CT procedure volume with an estimated 91.4 million scans<sup>1<\/sup>. Now, photon counting CT technology may have the potential to define the next 50 years of CT innovation.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt has been evident for decades that CT (and x-ray imaging) would benefit greatly from energy-discriminating photon counting detectors,\u201d explains Norbert Pelc, Sc.D., Professor of Radiology, Emeritus at Stanford University. \u201cThe challenge has been developing detectors that can handle the very high photon flux from high-power x-ray tubes while delivering good energy resolution and maintaining or improving spatial resolution. Of course, the detectors also have to be manufacturable at reasonable cost. It is a huge testament to the scientists and engineers at Prismatic Sensors that they have achieved this. I expect the impact on the CT field will be large, for example, improved dose efficiency, particularly for low dose acquisitions and for applications that benefit from tissue specificity. <b>To put the higher spatial resolution of this Deep Silicon detector in perspective, we have not seen an improvement of this magnitude in decades, and every other time that spatial resolution was improved significantly the utility of CT also advanced.<\/b> This is very exciting.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nGE researchers began studying PCCT in 1993 and introduced the world\u2019s first PCCT prototype using cadmium-based detectors in 2006. The company has been an industry leader in this technology for Nuclear Medicine for a decade, providing excellent results to clinicians and patients. Now, using Deep Silicon detectors, GE has identified a better solution for CT to accommodate the much higher count-rate demands of CT imaging, thereby providing much more information to clinicians.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cClinicians rely on the information they receive from medical images \u2013 like those we receive from a CT \u2013 to help correctly diagnose patients, monitor cases, and make treatment decisions,\u201d explains Staffan Holmin, MD, Professor in Clinical Neuroimaging, Karolinska Institutet and Senior Consultant at Karolinska University Hospital in Sweden. \u201cWhat\u2019s so exciting about photon counting CT is that it brings higher spatial resolution and contrast. This can help us to image small blood vessels, vascular pathologies, and to see malignant changes at an earlier stage when treatment can be more effective. The potential for substantially reduced radiation is also important, particularly for pediatric patients. <b>Photon counting will likely become the standard of care for all clinical applications where CT is used today<\/b>.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nGE Healthcare expects to close the Prismatic Sensors acquisition by January 2021, after holding a minority position in the company since 2017. GE Healthcare and Prismatic Sensors will work together to deliver a clinical system in the near future<sup>2<\/sup>.
