Abstract

Dual-energy measurements are presented utilizing a novel slot-scan digital radiographic imaging detector, operating on gaseous-solid state ionization principles. The novel multimedia detector has two basic functional components: a noble gas filled detector volume operating on gas microstrip principles, and a solid state detector volume. The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential use of this multimedia detector for enhanced dual-energy imaging. The experimental results indicate that the multimedia detector exhibits a high sensitivity. Although the intrinsic merit of this device is being explored for medical imaging, potential applications of the multimedia detector technology in other industrial areas are also very promising.
