Section: claims

1. An Anti-Scatter-Grid for a radiation detector, comprising radiation absorbing lamellae which are adapted to produce a signal that indicates an amount of absorbed radiation. 2. The Anti-Scatter-Grid according to claim 1, wherein the lamellae comprise a semiconductor material which converts absorbed radiation into electrical signals, particularly a material with a low intrinsic energy conversion coefficient for conversion of photons into electron-hole pairs. 3. The Anti-Scatter-Grid according to claim 1, wherein the lamellae comprise a scintillator material for conversion of incident radiation of a first energy level into radiation of a second energy level. 4. The Anti-Scatter-Grid according to claim 1, wherein the lamellae comprise a material with a high absorption coefficient, particularly higher than 1 cm−1, for photons with energies below 150 keV. 5. The Anti-Scatter-Grid according to claim 1, wherein the lamellae are at least partially covered by electrodes. 6. The Anti-Scatter-Grid according to claim 5, wherein at least one of the electrodes ends at a distance away from an edge of the corresponding lamella, wherein said distance is preferably such that radiation traveling through the material of the lamella is substantially absorbed after said distance. 7. The Anti-Scatter-Grid according to claim 6, wherein it comprises both electrodes ending at a distance away from an edge and electrodes ending at the edge of the corresponding lamella. 8. A radiation detector, comprisingan Anti-Scatter-Grid according to claim 1;optionally a converter for conversion of incident radiation of a first energy level into radiation of a different energy level;an array of radiation sensitive sensor units;a signal processing unit for evaluation of signals generated by the Anti-Scatter-Grid. 9. The radiation detector according to claim 8, wherein the signal processing unit is adapted to discriminate fractions of incident radiation with respect to their parallelism to channels and/or lamellae of the Anti-Scatter-Grid. 10. An examination apparatus with an imaging system, particularly an X-ray, CT, PET, SPECT or nuclear imaging device, the imaging system comprising an X-ray sensitive radiation detector according to claim 8.
