Indirect flat panel x-ray detector

Definition

An electrically-powered, cassette-like device intended to be used as part of an x-ray system to detect x-ray images following exposure, and create a digital signal; it is not dedicated to imaging of a specific anatomy. It includes two types of transducing technology (i.e., indirect): a scintillator [e.g. caesium iodide (CsI)] screen converts x-ray energy into light, followed by the conversion of light into a digital signal by photodiode array. The image data can be sent to an appropriate processing unit through a wired or wireless connection (e.g., Wi-Fi). It may be used in place of a fixed detector in x-ray imaging systems, e.g., as part of a digital imaging conversion system.
