Abstract:
An imaging system ( 100 ) includes a detector module ( 114 ). The detector module includes a block ( 300 ) of a plurality of direct conversion photon counting detector pixels ( 122 ) and corresponding electronics ( 124, 604, 606, 132, 134  or  124, 128, 130, 134, 802 ) with hardware for both high energy resolution imaging mode and high X-ray flux imaging mode connected with the block of the plurality of direct conversion photon counting detector pixels. A method includes identifying a scanning mode for a selected imaging protocol, wherein the scanning modes includes one of a higher energy resolution mode and a higher X-ray flux mode, configuring a detector module, which is configurable for both the higher energy resolution mode and the higher X-ray flux mode, based on the identified scanning mode, performing the scan with the detector module configured for the mode of the selected imaging protocol, and processing scan data from the scan, generating volumetric image data.

Claim (Index 8):
The imaging system of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a controller for configuring the module for at least one of the high energy resolution imaging or the high X-ray flux imaging based on an input, wherein the input is indicative of an imaging protocol for a scan, and the controller configures the detector module for the high energy resolution imaging or the high X-ray flux imaging before the scan.
