摘要

detection apparatus for detecting photons, imaging apparatus for imaging an object, detection method for detecting photons, computer detection program for detecting detection data, and computer imaging program for reflecting an object the invention relates to to a detection apparatus (12) for photon detection. the sensing apparatus comprises an accumulation determining unit (15) for determining whether sensing pulses indicative of the detected photons are caused by an accumulation event or a nonaccumulation event, wherein the value generating unit The sensing signal (16) generates sensing values according to the sensing signal pulses and depending on whether the respective sensing signal pulse is caused by an accumulation event or a non-accumulation event. in particular, the sensing value generating unit may be adapted to reject sensing signal pulses caused by accumulation events when generating sensing values. This allows to improve the quality of the generated detection values.
