Abstract

An imaging system () includes a radiation source () that emits radiation that traverses an examination region and imageable drug eluting beads in tissue of interest located therein, a spectral detector array () detects radiation traversing the examination region and generates a signal indicative thereof, spectral processing circuitry () that spectrally resolves the signal based on a plurality of thresholds (), and a reconstructor () that generates spectral volumetric image data corresponding the imageable drug eluting beads based on the spectrally resolved signal.
