SCINTILLATOR FOR AN IMAGING DEVICE, SCINTILLATOR MODULE, IMAGING DEVICE WITH SUCH A SCINTILLATOR, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A SCINTILLATOR

摘要

A scintillator (2) for an imaging device comprises a plate (4) made of a material capable of emitting photons (F) according to an incident radiation (R). The scintillator comprises at least one block (5) of a second material capable of emitting photons (F) according to the incident radiation (R). The plate (4) and the block (5) are assembled via the edge of the plate by connecting means (6) absorbing all or some of the photons (F) emitted by the plate and the block (4, 5). A scintillator module and an imaging device with such a scintillator, and a method of manufacturing a scintillator are also proposed.
