Abstract

A detector assembly positionable to receive X-rays from an X-ray source within an imaging system is provided. The detector assembly includes multiple detector elements. The detector assembly also includes a temperature regulation system including multiple temperature regulation devices, wherein each temperature regulation device of the multiple temperature regulation devices is associated with a respective detector element of the multiple detector elements, and each temperature regulation device is configured to independently maintain a consistent temperature across a portion of a respective detector element.
