Claim 15:
16. A pulsed radiation detector comprising an array of sensor elements arranged in element lines, means for irradiating at least a portion of the array of sensor elements with the pulsed radiation, and a computer data processor, wherein the computer data processor is configured to:
calculate a predetermined integration period using an integration period function, the integration period function being a function of an anticipated pulse repetition interval of the pulsed radiation to be detected;
configure a rolling shutter operation to address each of the element lines for the predetermined integration period;
address the element lines using the rolling shutter operation;
obtain a radiation image from the array of sensor elements; and then
apply a pulse detection operation to the radiation image, thereby detecting the pulsed radiation.
