  2. X-ray detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_detector

    Fish bone pierced in the upper esophagus. Right image without contrast medium, left image during swallowing with contrast medium. To obtain an image with any type of image detector the part of the patient to be X-rayed is placed between the X-ray source and the image receptor to produce a shadow of the internal structure of that particular part of the body.

  3. Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobster_Eye_Imager_for...

    LEIA instrument undergoing on-ground X-ray calibration at IHEP before being assembled onto the SATech satellite. [1] Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy (LEIA) (also known as EP-WXT-pathfinder [2]) is a wide-field X-ray imaging space telescope built by Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). It was launched on July 27, 2022 onboard of SATech-01 ...

  4. Automatic exposure control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_exposure_control

    An x-ray image receptor, containing an anti-scatter grid and three AEC regions (represented by dark grey circles and square) These regions represent anatomical areas, e.g. lungs, spine. They can be selected individually, or all at once depending on the need. Automatic Exposure Control (AEC) is an X-ray exposure termination

  5. X-ray optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_optics

    X-ray optics is the branch of optics dealing with X-rays, rather than visible light. It deals with focusing and other ways of manipulating the X-ray beams for research techniques such as X-ray diffraction , X-ray crystallography , X-ray fluorescence , small-angle X-ray scattering , X-ray microscopy , X-ray phase-contrast imaging , and X-ray ...

  6. Flat-panel detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-panel_detector

    A portable aSi flat-panel detector is used to visualise the movement of liquids in sand cores under high pressure. Flat-panel detectors are a class of solid-state x-ray digital radiography devices similar in principle to the image sensors used in digital photography and video.

  7. X-ray filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_filter

    An X-ray filter (or compensating filter) is a device placed in front of an X-ray source in order to reduce the intensity of particular wavelengths from its spectrum and selectively alter the distribution of X-ray wavelengths within a given beam before reaching the image receptor. [1]

    XR 11-1993 (R1999) Test Standard for the Determination of the Limiting Spatial Resolution of X-ray Image Intensifier Systems; XR 10-1986 (R1992, R1998, R2003) Measurement of the Maximum Symmetrical Radiation Field from a Rotating Anode X-ray Tube Used for Medical Diagnosis; XR 9-1984 (R1994, R2000) Power Supply Guidelines for X-ray Machines

  9. Peak kilovoltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_kilovoltage

    As the energy (which is proportional to the peak voltage) of the stream of electrons in the X-ray tube increases, the X-ray photons created from those electrons are more likely to penetrate the cells of the body and reach the image receptor (film or plate), resulting in increased film density (compared to lower energy beams that may be absorbed ...
