Medical Applications of Tissue-Equivalent, Organic-Based Flexible Direct X-Ray Detectors

fuzzy-based medical x-ray image classification

in this paper a novel fuzzy scheme for medical x-ray image classification is presented. in this method, any image is partitioned in to 25 overlapping subimages and then shape-texture features are extracted from shape and directional information extracted from any subimage. in the classification stage, we apply a fuzzy membership to any subimage with respect to euclidean distance between feature...

Direct-conversion flat-panel X-ray image detectors

Flat-panel X-ray image detectors have been shown to be suitable to replace the conventional X-ray filmjscreen cassettes for medical radiography (static or snapshot imaging). They are capable of capturing the X-ray image digitally immediately after the X-ray exposure which permits a convenient clinical transition to digital radiography. There are two general approaches to the flat-panel X-ray de...

Applications of 2D Detectors in X-ray Analysis

X-ray transparent reaction vessels for the dynamic in-situ study of materials processes involving volatile agents have been developed. These chemically inert and airtight cells serve to uniformly heat the sample and its enclosed environment while minimizing the loss of vapor species from the cells. Currently these cells are being employed to study such applications as phase evolution in thalliu...

Direct X-ray photoconversion in flexible organic thin film devices operated below 1 V

The application of organic electronic materials for the detection of ionizing radiations is very appealing thanks to their mechanical flexibility, low-cost and simple processing in comparison to their inorganic counterpart. In this work we investigate the direct X-ray photoconversion process in organic thin film photoconductors. The devices are realized by drop casting solution-processed bis-(t...
