Flat panel detectors
Indirect detectors which use the close proximity of a converter and the sensor are popular in clinical imaging. They provide moderate spatial resolution but very good efficiency. IMBL has two such devices. A Hamamatsu C10900D which has a 122 mm horizontal by 123 mm vertical field of view. The pixels are 100 microns. The full field frame rate is 35 fps with an ability to switch to a 122 mm horizontal by 7 mm vertical region readout at 70 fps.
Field of view (mm) | Pixelation/size (mm) | Frame rate (fps) |
122 × 123 | 1216 x 1232 / 100 | 35 |
122 × 7 | 1216 × 72 / 100 | 70 |
122 × 123 | 608 x 618/ 200 | 17 |
122 × 62 | 608 × 310/200 | 280 |
The second flat panel is a Teledyne-Dalsa Xineos 3030HR. This has a large field of view (296 mm horizontal by 296 mm vertical) with 99 micron pixels. In this full field mode the readout speed is 31 fps. The Xineos can also be run with alternative regions. For instance a 148 mm horizontal by 148 mm vertical mode again with 99 micron pixels will readout at 57 fps.
Field of view (mm) | Pixelation/size (mm) | Frame rate (fps) |
296 × 296 | 2994 x 2997 / 99 | 31 |
148 x 148 | 1497 x 1498 / 99 | 57 |
148 x 148 | 748 x 748 / 198 | 108 |
Both these flat panel detectors use an amorphous silicon photodiode array to detect optical light from a CsI:Tl converter.
