Computational modelling of radiation transport can enhance the understanding of the
relative importance of individual processes involved in imaging systems. Modelling is a …

The intrinsic phosphor properties are of significant importance for the performance of
phosphor screens used in medical imaging systems. In previous analytical‐theoretical and …

We describe MANTIS (Monte carlo x-rAy electroN opTical Imaging Simulation), a tool for
simulating imaging systems that tracks x-rays, electrons and optical photons in arbitrary …

Purpose The detective quantum efficiency (DQE) of indirect flat panel detectors (I‐FPDs) is
limited at higher x‐ray energies (eg, 100–140 kVp) by low absorption in their scintillating x …

Oblique incidence of x rays on an imaging detector causes blurring that reduces spatial
resolution. For simple projection imaging this effect is small and often ignored. However, for …

Purpose: Performance optimization of indirect x‐ray detectors requires proper
characterization of both ionizing (gamma) and optical photon transport in a heterogeneous …

Purpose Quantitative assessment of trabecular bone microarchitecture in extremity cone‐
beam CT (CBCT) would benefit from the high spatial resolution, low electronic noise, and …

We describe a multi-layer (“sandwich”) configuration detector consisting of two x-ray imaging
flat-panel detectors for single-shot (single-kV) dual-energy imaging. An intermediate copper …

Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) based on indirect detection, active matrix flat
panel imagers (AMFPIs) have become the technology of choice for geometric verification of …

Purpose Turbid (powder or columnar‐structured) scintillators are widely used in indirect flat
panel detectors (I‐FPDs) for scientific, industrial, and medical radiography. Light diffusion …
