ABSTRACT:
An x-ray detector system has a collimator with a number of spaced walls respectively defining collimator channels therebetween. A detector element is disposed at the end of each collimator channel in the direction of radiation propagation. Each detector element has a radiation transducer contained in a housing. Each transducer has a width which is substantially the same at the width of the collimator channel with which it is associated, and the lateral walls of the detector element housing are substantially in registry with the collimator walls in the direction of radiation propagation, so as to lie within the shadow of the collimator walls. This x-ray detector system thereby achieves a high filling factor.
