Abstract

In this study, the Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE) of Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) detectors for digital radiography has been measured. Specifically, this study is aimed at investigating the zero frequency DQE(O) under different x-ray tube and detector parameters. The experimental results indicate good DQE(0), although the detector system is limited by current manufacturing techniques.
