<p>A large solid state sensor assembly (14) is formed from a plurality of smaller solid state sensors (18, 20, 22, 24, 32, 34) which are positioned contiguously to each other. The large solid state sensor assembly (14) is preferably a solid state X-ray assembly and includes at least a first solid state sensor (18, 20, 22, 24) having an X-ray detector region and a blind non-detector border region, and a second solid state sensor (32) having an X-ray detector region and a blind non-detector border region. The second sensor (32) is positioned adjacent to the first sensor (18, 20, 22, 24) with respective non-detector regions being contiguous. A third solid state sensor (34) having an X-ray detector region, is positioned to overlie the first (18, 20, 22, 24), and second (32) solid state sensors so that the X-ray detector region of the third sensor (34) overlies the blind non-detector regions of the first and second sensors. Thus, a large continuous X-ray detector region formed of said first, second, and third sensor detector regions is provided.</p> |
