Hybrid two-dimensional scintillator arrangement

Abstract

The invention relates to a hybrid two-dimensional scintillator arrangement which is formed by a plurality of one-dimensional detector strips. The detector strips (1) are formed by scintillator slabs (3) and absorber layers (2) which are glued between said scintillator slabs. The detector strips (1) are fitted parallel to one another in a fitting form (4). The one-dimensional detector strips can be manufactured with a high degree of precision. The fitting form (4) can also be manufactured with a very high degree of precision and accommodates the individual detector strips (1) in a second direction which extends perpendicularly to the direction in which the detector strips extend. The fitting form (4) is provided with transverse pieces (5), the detector strips (1) being inserted between the transverse pieces (5). The intermediate space (6) arising over the transverse pieces (5a) and between the detector strips (1) is filled with layers or a material (7) which absorb X-rays, thus enabling separation of the detector strips in the second direction.
