Summary
[edit]DescriptionDigital X-Ray Detector Panel - Flickr - The Central Intelligence Agency.jpg |
This glass panel is a component of a solid-state detector used in an X-ray imaging device. Etched onto the panel is an array of about 1,100 x 900 picture elements ("pixels"). Each consists of a field effect transistor (FET) switch and a light-detecting diode. X-rays make a (separate) scintillation material "glow" visible light, reducing the total amount of energy needed to create an image. The pixels on this glass panel accumulate the light generated by the scintillation material, for storage and subsequent readout by the controlling computer. Originally intended for digital mammography applications, this glass panel demonstrated enormous dynamic-range and readout-speed improvements over the charge-coupled device (CCD) technology it replaces.
