There is provided a circuit () configured for operation with a multi-bin photon-counting x-ray detector () having multiple energy thresholds, wherein said circuit () is configured to obtain or generate several Total Time-Over-Threshold (TTOT) signals corresponding to several different energy thresholds, and provide energy integrating information based on said several TTOT signals.

There is provided an edge-on x-ray detector configured for detecting incoming x-rays. The edge-on x-ray detector includes a plurality of adjacent x-ray sensors, and each x-ray sensor is oriented edge-on to incoming x-rays. The x-ray sensors are arranged side-by-side and/or lined up one after the other, and the interspacing between the x-ray sensors is at least partly filled with a gap filling material including a mixture or compound of resin and metal disulfide.

A photon-counting detector includes a first subset of detector modules and at least one second subset of detector modules. Each detector module has power-consuming circuitry. Power-consuming circuitry of detector modules in the first subset is configured, in an operational mode in which the detector modules are powered on, to consume a first amount of power. Correspondingly, power-consuming circuitry of detector modules in the at least one second subset is configured, in the operational mode, to consume a second amount of power that is lower than the first amount of power.
