X-ray imaging performance of structured cesium iodide scintillators.
Columnar structured cesium iodide (CsI) scintillators doped with Thallium (Tl) have been used extensively for indirect x-ray imaging detectors. The purpose of this paper is to develop a methodology for systematic investigation of the inherent imaging performance of CsI as a function of thickness and design type. The results will facilitate the optimization of CsI layer design for different x-ra...
متن کاملThin scintillators for ultrafast hard X-ray imaging
A multilayer thin-scintillator concept is described for ultrafast imaging. The individual layer thickness is determined by the spatial resolution and light attenuation length, the number of layers is determined by the overall efficiency. By coating the scintillators with a high quantum-efficiency photocathode, single X-ray photon detection can be achieved using fast scintillators with low light...
متن کاملStructured CsI(Tl) Scintillators for X-ray Imaging Applications
We are developing large-area, thick, structured CsI(Tl) imaging sensors for a wide variety of X-ray imaging applications. Recently we have fabricated structured CsI(Tl) scintillators ranging from 30 μm (16 mg/cm) to 2000 μm (900 mg/cm) in thickness and up to 15 x 15 cm in area. Even 2000-μm-thick film showed well-controlled columnar growth throughout the film. Material characterization confirme...
متن کاملIndustrial X-ray imaging based on scintillators and CMOS APS array: direct X-ray irradiation effects
To see the effects of the direct X-ray in a Lanex screen-coupled CMOS APS imager, we measured modulation transfer function (MTF), noise power spectrum (NPS), and detective quantum efficiency (DQE). These measurements were performed under the condition of non-destructive test (NDT). By increasing the cumulative exposure on the imager, the MTF was degraded, and also leading to the DQE degradation...
متن کاملOptimization of x-ray imaging geometry (with specific application to flat-panel cone-beam computed tomography).
A theoretical method is presented that allows identification of optimal x-ray imaging geometry, considering the effects of x-ray source distribution, imaging task, x-ray scatter, and imager detective quantum efficiency (DQE). Each of these factors is incorporated into the ICRU-recommended figure of merit for image quality, the detectability index, which is maximized to determine the optimal sys...
