ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for digital imaging including at least one electron multiplier arranged to receive beta radiation from a sample, apparatus for collimating the beta radiation without totally blocking all radiation from any location within a given region of interest on the sample, and readout electrodes operative in response to electrons from the electron multiplier to provide a first output indication of the incidence and location of beta radiation from the sample.
