ABSTRACT:
A detector for computer tomography or digital radiography has an optimum efficiency and an optimum signal-to-noise ratio, and the thickness of the acquired x-ray beam can be selected in a simple way. The detector is formed by a row of parallel, bar-shaped scintillators. Every scintillator has a row of optical conductors extending in the longitudinal direction of the scintillator allocated to it. The optical conductors of a scintillator are separated from one another by slots, with the slots between the optical conductors of neighboring scintillators being in registry. Chips carrying photodiodes are plugged into the slots. Every scintillator together with the allocated optical conductors is surrounded by a reflector.
