X-ray Image Intensifier

An X-ray image intensifier (also known as an X-ray electro-optical intensifier) ​​is a device used to enhance and improve the quality of X-ray images.

The principle of operation of the amplifier is based on the conversion of X-ray radiation passing through an object into a visible image using an electron-optical system. X-rays hit the input fluorescent screen, where they are converted into visible light. This light is projected onto the photocathode, knocking electrons out of it.

Electrons are focused and accelerated using electrostatic and electromagnetic lenses. Next, they enter the output fluorescent screen, where they collide with the phosphor and create an enhanced visible image. The intensity of the glow on the output screen is proportional to the intensity of X-ray radiation on the input screen.

Thus, the X-ray image intensifier produces an image with higher contrast than the original X-ray. This greatly facilitates the interpretation of images by radiologists. Amplifiers are widely used in medical imaging.

An X-ray Electro-Optical Intensifier is a device that is used to enhance images obtained using X-rays or other imaging techniques. It provides clearer and more detailed images, which helps improve diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

The operating principle of an X-ray image intensifier is to use electron beams to image X-ray images. Electron beams pass through the patient's tissue, converting the X-rays into an electrical signal that is amplified and displayed on a screen. This way, you can get a clearer image and better see the tissue structure.

One of the main areas of application of the X-ray Electron-Optical Amplifier is computed tomography
