Zusammenfassung: | A radiation detector containing: (a) a fiber optic network; (b) an array of pixelized phosphors on the X-ray incidence side of the fiber optic network; and (c) an array of pixelized sensors optically coupled to the other side of the fiber optic network, wherein: (i) the ratio of the surface area of a phosphor pixel to the surface area of a sensor pixel is in the range of about 1:1 to 1:64, and (ii) the ratio of the surface area of the core of each individual optical fiber of the fiber optic network to the surface area of a phosphor pixel is in the range of about 1:4 to 1:160. |
