This report will focus exclusively on direct Imaging applications.
Microscopy is excluded from that report because is hardly ever used in vivo, primarily it is used in vitro.
Indirect imaging applications will not be developed in this report as their evolution rather relies on software
processing optimization.

Three main components :
Scintillator to convert x-ray into visible
light
Fiber Optic Taper for mignification
CCD sensor for light to electron
conversion

Fiber Optic Taper
High resolution
Buky, low field of view
CCD sensor

Two components:
1.
Scintillator to convert x-ray into visible
light
2. a-Si matrix array: passive pixels
(photodiodes convert light into electrons +
one TFT switch per pixel)
a-Si FPD

Scintillator for x-ray to visible light
conversion
2. CMOS image sensor: active pixel
(photodiodes convert light into electrons +
several transistors per pixel convert charges
to voltage, on-pixel ADC & amplifier)
•+ High speed/resolution
•- Limited size  needs sensor tiling,
expensive
