X-Scan LCS can also be used for continuous sources such as 450 kVp X-ray tubes or gamma radiation sources (Co60) for applications requiring extremely high conversion efficiency. The detector can be set to non-continuous image acquisition mode for linear accelerators and betatrons and continuous mode for X-ray tubes and other continuous sources. Standard pixel sizes for X-Scan LCS are 2.3mm, 4.6mm and 9.2mm. Each detector module (DM) with 2.3mm pixel size houses 64 channels, and detector module with 4.6mm pixel size houses 32 channels and detector modules with 9.2mm pixel size houses 16 channels as shown in the general characteristics sheet. Other components within Detector Sub-System delivery include X-Scan control unit and cabling. The basic detection element of X-Scan LCS detector module is formed by a pixelated Cadmium Tungstate (CdWO4) or Cesium Iodide (CsI) scintillators coupled to low-leakage silicon photodiodes. The detector elements are separated using a reflector between the pixels for best light collection and minimized optical crosstalk. Absorption length of 30mm provides very high conversion efficiency for up to 15MeV accelerators and integrated read-out electronics provides up to 18-bit A/D resolution. Digital interface from control unit to PC is provided through an Ethernet connection. Lead alloy post-collimator and tungsten anti-scatter grids can be integrated into detector module mechanics depending on customer system imaging geometry and requirements. Detection Technology also provides solutions for specific requirements using DT’s X-Scan design building blocks.
