ABSTRACT:
A solid state x-ray detector has a scintillator element converting x-ray flux to fluorescence photons, a photosensor detecting the x-ray induced fluorescence of the scintillator, and collimator plates of a high atomic number material and having thickened end regions disposed toward the x-ray source to prevent the x-ray flux from impinging upon the edge region of a misaligned scintillator element.
