Abstract
An imaging system is provided that includes a gantry, plural radiation detector head assemblies, a cooling unit, and a manifold. The radiation detector head assemblies are disposed about a bore of the gantry. Each radiation detector head assembly includes a detector housing and a rotor assembly. The rotor assembly is configured to be rotated about an axis. The rotor assembly includes a detector unit that in turn includes an absorption member and associated processing circuitry. The cooling unit is mounted to the gantry and is configured to provide an output flow of air at a controlled temperature. The manifold is coupled to the cooling unit and the plural radiation detector head assemblies, and places the cooling unit and radiation detector head assemblies in fluid communication with each other. The output flow of air from the cooling unit is delivered to the plural radiation detector head assemblies.
