Novel X-ray System

Conventional medical X-ray images are adequate for distinguishing between regions with significantly different density such as that between bone and surrounding tissue. The contrast however, is not sufficient to distinguish regions of similar density, such as tumours within healthy tissue etc. STFC’s patented X-ray technology that simultaneously...

Imaging Sensor (3 Side Buttable)

For some imaging applications, such as medical X-ray imaging and satellite imaging, the detecting area has to be large and can only be covered by tiling several smaller detector units preferably in a 3-side buttable fashion, which poses many readout and addressing issues. The following novel STFC technology overcomes challenges posed by such a design....
