Abstract:
An X-ray imaging system and a method thereof are provided. In one or more embodiments, the imaging system includes an X-ray detector having neuromorphic X-ray pixels that can be combined with integrating pixels in a single hybrid detector package. The X-ray detector may generate two types of datasets (e.g., output data streams), one of integrating keyframes, the other an asynchronous event stream of intensity changes. In one or more embodiments, the method may include detecting X-rays from an imageable event using the X-ray detector, generating the two types of datasets based on the detected X-rays, and reconstructing one or more images of the imageable event based on the two types of generated datasets. By utilizing artificial intelligence/machine learning, these datasets may be combined to generate novel x-ray imaging modes that include deblurred high dynamic range real-time frame sequences or a high-speed, high dynamic range frame sequence for subsequent viewing.
