Abstract
One embodiment is a method of deconvolving overlapping first and second pulses in a photon-counting CT scanning system, the method comprising detecting a first pulse event having a first detected level; detecting a second pulse event having a second detected level; determining an amount of time that elapses between the detected first pulse event and the detected second pulse event; and reconstructing the first pulse and the second pulse using the first and second detected levels, the duration of time between the first and second pulse events, and a known pulse shape.
