Principle

With digital X-ray imaging, X-ray photons that interact with the detector are converted to a digital signal. This permits to record digital radiographies. With this experiment, the principles of digital detectors for X-ray imaging are laid out.

Tasks

Define a good exposure time.
Calibrate the detector
Take some radiographies of an object and process the images with the image viewer

Learning objectives

Exposure time
Detector saturation
Full well capacity
Detector calibration
Beam intensity
Detector offset
Pixel specific gain
Attenuation and transmission
Image processing
