ABSTRACT:
A radiation image recorded in a stimulable phosphor is read out by stimulating the stimulable phosphor by use of stimulating rays such as visible light or infrared rays. Upon stimulated, the stimulable phosphor emits light which is detectable by a photosensor. The radiation image readout device includes a photosensor for detecting the light emitted by the phosphor, and a reflecting optical element like a mirror located between the phosphor and the photodetector for reflecting stimulating rays advancing between the phosphor and the photosensor toward the phosphor. The reflecting optical element has a very small size not to intercept the light emitted by the phosphor and detected by the photosensor as much as possible.
