Fuji FCR Imaging Plates; High
sensitivity, high sharpness, low noise
The FCR Imaging Plate (IP) is the world's
first photostimulable phosphor put to practical use as a recording
medium. The IP accurately detects X-ray information and stores
it as energy within the phosphor particles. It offers high
sensitivity, high sharpness, low noise radiographs for diagnosis
by utilising a high-emission photostimulable phosphor, BaFX
(X = halogen), in a high-density dispersion image recording
layer.
Because the photostimulated luminescence
is remarkably linear to the X-ray exposure over a very wide
range, any single Imaging Plate accommodates a broad sensitivity
spectrum from high sensitivity (low dosage) to low sensitivity
(high dosage), making it possible to tailor exposures to suit
particular diagnostic needs.
