RADIATION IMAGING APPARATUS

摘要

A radiation imaging apparatus provided with a pulse height analyzer for checking whether the pulse height of the energy signal produced in response to each scintillation event falls within an energy window set for the particular (x,y) coordinate position of the scintillation. The pulse height analyzer has a memory for storing a plurality of energy windows each for a particular one of the coordinate positions in the scintillator and each having a particular central level and a particular width such that the nonuniformity of the sensitivity of the detector due to the position-dependency of the energy signal and/or other causes can be corrected. A preliminary pulse height analyzer may be provided to increase the counting rate of energy signals useful for image production.
