Abstract
A method of adjusting a gain of a detector is provided in the present disclosure. According to an example, whether a gain of a photomultiplier tube in the detector meets a gain determination condition may be determined, where the gain determination condition may indicate that an absolute of a difference between the gain of the photomultiplier tube and a target gain is within a predetermined numerical range. When the gain of the photomultiplier tube does not meet the gain determination condition, a voltage of the photomultiplier tube may be adjusted, such that the gain of the photomultiplier tube meets the gain determination condition.
