Abstract
A device for reproducing a radiation image is composed of a radiation-absorbing phosphor layer containing a phosphor which absorbs a radiation and then emits a light, a stimulable phosphor layer containing a stimulable phosphor which absorbs the light and stores energy of the light which is releasable in the form of light emission by stimulation with electric field, an electrode layer placed on each surface of the stimulable phosphor layer in which at least one electrode layer is a light-transmitting electrode, and a light-detecting layer which is arranged on the light-transmitting electrode.
Claims17
A device for reproducing a radiation image comprising at least one radiation-absorbing phosphor layer containing a phosphor which absorbs a radiation and subsequently emits a light, a stimulable phosphor layer containing a stimulable phosphor which absorbs the light and stores energy of the light therein which is releasable in the form of light emission by stimulation with electric field, a first electrode layer placed on an upper surface of the stimulable phosphor layer and a second electrode layer placed on a lower surface of the stimulable phosphor layer in which at least one of said first and second electrode layers is a light-transmitting electrode layer, and a light-detecting layer which is arranged on the light-transmitting electrode of the stimulable phosphor layer,
- wherein the at least one radiation-absorbing phosphor layer is positioned closer to an upper surface of the device than said first electrode layer.
A device for reproducing a radiation image comprising at least one radiation-absorbing phosphor layer containing a phosphor which absorbs a radiation and subsequently emits a light, a stimulable phosphor layer containing a stimulable phosphor which absorbs the light and stores energy of the light therein which is releasable in the form of light emission by stimulation with electric field, and a light-transmitting electrode layer placed on each of an upper surface and a lower surface of the stimulable phosphor layer,
- wherein the at least one radiation-absorbing phosphor layer is positioned closer to an upper surface of the device than a first electrode layer.
A set for reproducing a radiation image which is composed of a fluorescent sheet containing a phosphor which absorbs a radiation and subsequently emits a light and a radiation image storage panel comprising a stimulable phosphor layer containing a stimulable phosphor which absorbs the light and stores energy of the light therein which is releasable in the form of light emission by stimulation with electric field, and a light-transmitting electrode layer placed on each of an upper surface and a lower surface of the stimulable phosphor layer,
- wherein the fluorescent sheet is positioned closer to an upper surface of the device than said light-transmitting electrode layer.
