DIGITAL X-RAY DETECTOR HAVING POLYMERIC SUBSTRATE

Abstract:

A digital X-ray detector is provided. The digital X-ray detector includes a polymeric substrate. The digital X-ray detector also include a detector array configured to generate image data based on incident X-ray radiation disposed on the polymeric substrate, wherein the polymeric substrate extends beyond an edge of the detector array. The digital X-ray detector further includes scan electronics and readout electronics configured to acquire image data from the detector array, wherein the scan electronics, the readout electronics, or both the scan electronics and the readout electronics are directly disposed on the polymeric substrate.
