ABSTRACT:
An X-ray image detector has been disclosed comprising X-ray sensitive storage means for storing an X-ray image, which storage means emit image-wise modulated light when being stimulated, and a two-dimensional position sensitive gaseous photon detector. An image stored by the detector is read by line-wise stimulation of the X-ray sensitive storage means followed by measurement of the charges generated by the gaseous photon detector.
