  • Detector module, detector and computed tomography unit
    Patent number: 7645998
    Abstract: A detector module includes an array of detector elements and a printed circuit board. On a first side of the circuit board, the array of detector elements is arranged, and on a second side at least one component used for signal processing is arranged. The printed circuit board makes electrical contact with a plug connector having a free space in which the component is held. The detector module is provided for a detector of a computed tomography unit.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: January 12, 2010
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Ludwig Danzer, Harald Märkl
  • Detector module, detector and computer tomograph
    Patent number: 7358501
    Abstract: A detector module is disclosed, having an array of detector elements and a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board includes a first region for holding the array of detector elements and includes at least one second region, angled off relative to the first region. On this at least one second region, signal-processing electronics may be arranged. The vertical design of the detector module allows the design of an area detector to be produced on the basis of a multiplicity of detector modules arranged next to one another. The area detector may be provided for a computer tomograph.
