摘要: The invention relates to a detection apparatus (12) for detecting photons. comprises pile-up determining unit (15) whether signal pulses being indicative of detected photons are caused by event or non-pile-up event, wherein values generating (16) generates depending on the and determination respective pulse is event. In particular, can be adapted reject events while values. This allows an improved quality generated
