  2. Backscatter X-ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backscatter_X-ray

    Backscatter X-ray is an advanced X-ray imaging technology. Traditional X-ray machines detect hard and soft materials by the variation in x-ray intensity transmitted through the target. In contrast, backscatter X-ray detects the radiation that reflects from the target. It has potential applications where less-destructive examination is required ...

  3. 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. They are used in both projectional radiography and as an alternative ...

  4. Medipix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medipix

    Medipix-2 MXR is an improved version of Medipix-2 device with better temperature stability, pixel counter overflow protection, increased radiation hardness and many other improvements. Timepix is device conceptually originating from Medipix-2. It adds two more modes to the pixels, in addition to counting of detected signals: Time-over-Threshold ...

  5. Picture archiving and communication system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_archiving_and...

    A picture archiving and communication system (PACS) is a medical imaging technology which provides economical storage and convenient access to images from multiple modalities (source machine types). [1] Electronic images and reports are transmitted digitally via PACS; this eliminates the need to manually file, retrieve, or transport film ...

  6. Digital radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_radiography

    Digital radiography is a form of radiography that uses x-ray–sensitive plates to directly capture data during the patient examination, immediately transferring it to a computer system without the use of an intermediate cassette. [1] Advantages include time efficiency through bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transfer ...

  7. X-ray detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_detector

    X-ray detector. Acquisition of projectional radiography, with an X-ray generator and an imaging detector. X-ray detectors are devices used to measure the flux, spatial distribution, spectrum, and/or other properties of X-rays. Detectors can be divided into two major categories: imaging detectors (such as photographic plates and X-ray film ...

  8. X-ray machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_machine

    An X-ray generator generally contains an X-ray tube to produce the X-rays. Possibly, radioisotopes can also be used to generate X-rays. [1]An X-ray tube is a simple vacuum tube that contains a cathode, which directs a stream of electrons into a vacuum, and an anode, which collects the electrons and is made of tungsten to evacuate the heat generated by the collision.

  9. Automated X-ray inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_x-ray_inspection

    X-ray of an electronic circuit board (zoom series into an old token ring network adapter board). Automated X-ray inspection (AXI) is a technology based on the same principles as automated optical inspection (AOI). It uses X-rays as its source, instead of visible light, to automatically inspect features, which are typically hidden from view.
