Direct-to-Digital Image Capture System he Hologic DirectRay® digital image capture system uses an amorphous selenium (a-Se) coating on a non-tiled Thin-Film Transistor (TFT) matrix to capture full-size, high resolution radiographic images. DirectRay images have been proven equivalent to the highest quality screenfilm images over the full range of general radiographic examinations.
T
The DirectRay detector captures x-ray photons and converts them directly into electronic signals without the use of intensifying screens or scintillators. The result is a spectacularly detailed image, uncompromised by light scatter. Light scatter is an inherent problem in computed radiography,
screen-film and most digital image capture technologies. The DirectRay imaging system consists of the detector and a separate detector controller. Imaging system specifications • 3.6 cycles /mm Nyquist frequency DQE(0) > 45% • Wide dynamic range – captures 14 bits – 0.05 to 20 mR linear response (70 kVp, 21 mm Al)
