The detector is suitable for acquiring digital images in radiography modes. It allows radiological diagnostic examinations to be performed in real time. The acquired images are saved in the system memory, displayed on a high definition monitor (HD) and eventually transmitted to a diagnostic workstation. An intermediate storage of images is performed if a wireless connection is not available.
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.
