Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a radiation detector including a support portion. The radiation detector of the present invention has excellent rigidity and hardly deforms even when a heavy object is placed thereon to take a radiation image, so it has high durability and can obtain high-quality images.

Background Art

[0002] A radiation imaging system is a system for obtaining an image of the inside of an object, and includes a radiation source and a radiation detector. The radiation source irradiates an object such as a human body or an object with radiation, and the radiation detector receives the radiation that has passed through the object and converts it into an electrical signal to generate a radiation image. The radiation imaging system is a system that utilizes the property of being absorbed or transmitted depending on the characteristics of the substance through which X-rays pass when the object is irradiated with radiation.

[0003] When the radiation detector is manufactured with a thickness of 15 mm or less, there may be a problem that the panel is damaged due to an external impact or deformation. Therefore, it is necessary to reinforce the rigidity of the mechanism to improve the durability of the detector, relieve the impact generated by an external force, and protect the panel.

However, the embodiments disclosed below are not limited to those described herein and may be embodied in a variety of different forms, provided only to complete the disclosure and to fully inform those ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains.

[0028] This specification will briefly explain the terms used herein and then describe the disclosed examples in detail.

[0029] The terminology used herein has been selected to the greatest extent possible to be widely used and general terms, taking into account the function of this disclosure; however, this may change depending on the intent of engineers in the relevant field, case law, the emergence of new technologies, etc. In addition, in certain cases, the applicant has arbitrarily selected some terms, in which case their meaning will be described in detail in the description of the relevant invention.

[0035] The embodiments are described below in detail with reference to the attached drawings, so that they can be easily implemented by a person with ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. Parts not relevant to the description are omitted in order to clearly illustrate this disclosure with the drawings.

[0036] Figure 1 is a diagram showing a radiation detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0037] The radiation detector 100 may include a rear surface 101 and a front surface 102. The front surface 102 and the rear surface may be made of carbon material.

[0038] The detector 100 may further include a battery 1030. The detector 100 may include space for housing the battery 1030. The detector 100 may also include a coil 1010 for assisting wireless charging. The radiation detector 100 of this disclosure will be described in more detail below.

[0039] The radiation detector 100 of this disclosure may be configured to detect radiation, generate an electrical signal, and generate a radiation image based on the electrical signal. The radiation detector 100 can detect radiation emitted from a radiation source and transmitted through an object. The radiation may include at least one of X-rays, gamma rays, and certain ultraviolet rays. The radiation detector 100 can detect radiation and acquire a radiation image of the object. For example, the radiation image acquired by the radiation detector 100 may include at least one of X-ray images and CT (Computed Tomography) images. The radiation detector 100 may have a waterproof structure and be bendable. First, the radiation detector 100 of this disclosure may include a housing 120 to protect the internal components from external forces. The housing 120 may also provide a waterproof function and be bendable. The housing 120 will be described in more detail later.

[0040] The radiation detector 100 may include a radiation detection panel 110. The detection panel 110 can be classified into two types based on the method of acquiring electrical signals: an indirect conversion type that uses a scintillator to obtain electrical signals indirectly from visible light, and a direct conversion type that uses photoconductors to obtain electrical signals directly from radiation. Depending on the type of element that generates the electrical signal, it can be classified into a CCD type that uses a charge-coupled device, a CMOS type that uses a crystalline silicon CMOS element, and an a-Si type that uses an amorphous silicon TFT (Thin Film Transistor) substrate.

[0041] The radiation detector 100, including the detection panel 110, is equipped with various sensors and can realize digital image data using electrical signals and positional information of the sensors that are proportional to the amount of incident radiation. The radiation detector 100 can obtain near real-time imaging results, can secure high resolution and a wide dynamic range with relatively low radiation, and the storage and processing of imaging results are simple due to the characteristics of digital data. The radiation detector 100 includes a readout signal unit that reads electrical signals output from a pixel array, and a gate driver that turns on switching elements so that the readout signal unit can read electrical signals. The electrical signals detected by the readout signal unit are converted into image signals through a certain processing process by a controller on the main board and then transmitted to a display device for displaying X-ray images.

[0042] The radiation detection panel 110 can detect radiation incident on its first surface. Here, the first surface may refer to the front surface of the radiation detection panel 110. The radiation detection panel 110 may be flexible; that is, it may be bendable due to its flexibility. If the surface of the object has a rounded surface, the radiation detection panel 110 can be bent to make close contact with the surface of the object. Because the radiation detection panel 110 is positioned in close contact with the surface of the object, the sharpness of the radiation image may be increased.

[0043] The radiation detector 100 may include a housing 120. The housing 120 may be in contact with at least one of the following surfaces of the radiation detection panel 110: the first surface, the second surface opposite the first surface, and the third surface excluding the first and second surfaces. The second surface may be the rear surface of the radiation detection panel 110. The third surface may be a side surface of the radiation detection panel. For example, the third surface may include at least one of the top surface, left side surface, right side surface, and bottom surface.

[0044] The housing 120 may be configured to protect the radiation detection panel 110. Since the radiation detection panel 110 is a sensitive component, it can be easily damaged by external impacts, and external stimuli can degrade the quality of the radiation image. Also, if external substances enter the radiation detection panel 110, the quality of the radiation image may be degraded, or components contained in the radiation detector 100 may be damaged. The housing 120 can prevent the radiation detection panel 110 and the circuits contained in the radiation detector 100 from being damaged by external impacts, mitigate external impacts, and prevent external substances from entering the interior of the radiation detector 100.

[0045] Furthermore, the housing 120 can support the radiation detection panel 110. The housing 120 may be configured to maintain the shape of the radiation detection panel 110. The housing 120 may be made of a rigid material so that the radiation detection panel 110 can maintain a flat shape even when subjected to external forces.

[0046] According to various embodiments of this disclosure, the radiation detection panel 110 may be flexible and therefore bendable, and without the housing 120, it may be difficult to keep the radiation detection panel 110 in place relative to the object. This is because the radiation detection panel 110 would be easily deformed by the movement of the object or external forces. Therefore, the housing 120 may be a configuration for supporting the radiation detection panel 110 so that it maintains a certain shape after being bent. The housing 120 can adjust the bending of the radiation detection panel 110 about a bending axis parallel to the first direction and intersecting the second direction. That is, the radiation detection panel 110 can bend only as much as the housing 120 is bent. Here, the first direction may be upward, but is not limited to this, and the first direction may be downward.

[0047] The housing 120 can include a variety of configurations for the operation of the radiation detector 100. For example, the housing 120 can include at least one of a control unit, a communication unit, an input unit, and an output unit for the operation of the radiation detector 100. For example, the housing 120 may include a control board 1040, which can include at least one of a control unit, a communication unit, an input unit, and an output unit.

[0048] The internal structure of Detector 100 will be described in detail below.

[0049] Figure 2 shows a portion of a cross-section of a radiation detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0050] Figure 2 shows a cross-section of the detector 100, cut by a plane perpendicular to the front surface.

[0051] As mentioned above, the detector 100 may include a housing 120. The housing 120 may include a front surface 121, a side surface 122, and a rear surface 123. The front surface 121, the side surface 122, and the rear surface 123 may be connected to each other. At least two of the front surface 121, the side surface 122, and the rear surface 123 may be integrally formed, but are not limited to this.

[0052] The detector 100 may include a detection panel 110. The detection panel 110 may be configured to be contained within the housing 120 and to detect radiation.

[0053] The detector 100 may include an intermediate plate 210. The intermediate plate 210 may be contained within the housing 120. The intermediate plate 210 may be in contact with the detection panel 110. The intermediate plate 210 may be in contact with the rear of the detection panel 110. The intermediate plate 210 may support the detection panel 110. The intermediate plate 210 may be a configuration for fixing the detection panel 110. The detection panel 110 may be immovable relative to the intermediate plate 210. The intermediate plate 210 may be made of a rigid material. The intermediate plate 210 may cause the detector 100 to have a fixed shape. The intermediate plate 210 may allow the detection panel 110 to obtain a uniform radiation image.

[0054] The detector 100 may include a support member 230. The support member 230 may be connected to the intermediate plate 210. The support member 230 may be connected to the rear of the intermediate plate 210. The support member 230 may be screw-connected to the intermediate plate 210 or connected with adhesive.

[0055] The support member 230 can be connected to the intermediate plate 210 by an adhesive layer formed on one end face of the intermediate plate 210. That is, an adhesive layer can be located between the support member 230 and the intermediate plate 210. The adhesive layer may be configured to join the support member 230 and the intermediate plate 210. Adhesive may be applied to the front and upper surfaces of the adhesive layer. For example, the adhesive layer may be double-sided tape.

[0056] The support member 230 may be connected to the intermediate plate 210 by at least one fastening screw.

[0057] The support member 230 can support the intermediate plate 210. The intermediate plate 210 has a plate-like shape, and when an external force is applied, it may be difficult for the intermediate plate 210 alone to maintain the shape of the detector 100. The support member 230 can assist the intermediate plate 210 so that the detector 100 always maintains a constant shape. The support member 230 can be made of a hard material. The material of the support member 230 may include at least one of metal, plastic, carbon, or composite material. The support member 230 may include a metallic material such as aluminum, magnesium, titanium, or steel. The support member 230 may also include at least one of PC (polycarbonate), PP (polypropylene), PA (polyamide), and the same plastic. The support member 230 may also include carbon. The support member 230 may also include a composite material containing at least two of metal, plastic, PC, PP, PA, or carbon. However, it is not limited to these.

[0058] The support member 230 may be connected to the rear surface 123 of the housing. The support member 230 may be connected to the front side of the rear surface 123 of the housing. The support member 230 may be screw-connected to the rear surface 123 of the housing or connected by adhesive.

[0059] The support member 230 ensures that the components included in the detector 100 always maintain a constant shape, and the external force applied to the detector 100 can be dispersed. Therefore, the detector 100 has the effect of always obtaining a uniform radiation image.

[0060] The cross-section of the support member 230 can have the shape of a part of a trapezoid or a part of an inverted trapezoid. Furthermore, the cross-section of the support member 230 can have the shape of a part of a polygon, an ellipse, or a circle. For example, the cross-section of the support member 230 can have the shape of a part of a rectangle, a triangle, an inverted triangle, a pentagon, a hexagon, an ellipse, or a circle. Figure 2 shows the case where the cross-section of the support member 230 has the shape of a part of a trapezoid. A part of a trapezoid can represent a form in which the support member 230 widens from the front to the rear. An inverted trapezoid can represent a form in which the support member 230 widens from the rear to the front.

[0061] If the cross-section of the support member 230 is trapezoidal, it has the effect of minimizing the influence of the support member 230 on the image. In addition, the presence of a curved portion in the support member increases its rigidity, and since high rigidity can be maintained even if the length of the support member 230 is reduced, it has the effect of achieving weight reduction.

[0062] The detector 100 may further include an elastic filler in the recess 231 formed by the support member 230. The filler may include EPP (Expanded Polypropylene). The filler is not limited to any elastic material. The detector 100 may also include filler in areas 232 other than the recess 231 formed by the support member 230. At least one of the components of the detector 100 may be located in the recess 231. For example, a control board may be located in the recess 231. The space remaining after the control board is located in the recess 231 may be filled with filler. However, it is not limited to this.

[0063] Referring to Figure 2, an elastic layer 220 can be included between the detection panel 110 and the front surface 121 of the housing 120. The elastic layer can be embodied in PORON, but is not limited to this; elastic materials such as rubber, silicone, or urethane can be used. The elastic layer 220 can prevent external forces applied to the front surface 121 from being directly transmitted to the detection panel 110. Therefore, external forces are often applied to the front of the detection panel 110, especially since the object to be detected is located in front of the front surface 121. By absorbing the external forces applied to the front of the detection panel 110, the elastic layer 220 has the effect of enabling the detector to acquire high-quality radiographic images. In addition, the elastic layer 220 may also fill the space between the front surface 121 and the detection panel 110, thereby ensuring that the detection panel 110 always remains flat. Therefore, the detection panel 110 can maintain a flat state, which is the optimal state for acquiring radiographic images.

[0064] Figure 3 is a drawing illustrating an intermediate plate according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0065] Figure 4 is a diagram illustrating the arrangement of a support member according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0066] Figure 3 may be a perspective view of the intermediate plate 210 viewed from the rear according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. As described above, the intermediate plate 210 may be a configuration for supporting the detection panel 110. If the housing 120 is the exoskeleton of the detector 100, then the intermediate plate 210 can be said to be the instrumental skeleton of the detector 100. The intermediate plate 210 can have almost the same area as the detection panel 110. The detection panel 110 can be in contact with the front side of the intermediate plate 210. The intermediate plate 210 can be in contact with the detection panel 110 across its entire area. The intermediate plate 210 ensures that the detection panel 110 always has a flat shape.

[0067] The detector 100 further includes a support member 230, which can support the detection panel 110 more firmly. The support member 230 can prevent twisting of the detector 100. The support member 230 can also protect the detector 100 from external forces. Furthermore, by positioning the main components of the detector 100 in the space between the support member 230 and the intermediate plate 210 and in the space between the support member 230 and the housing 120, the main components can be prevented from being affected by external forces. Therefore, the detector of this disclosure has the effect of being highly durable. In particular, the detector 100 of this disclosure has the effect of preventing defects in which the detection panel is damaged by external forces.

[0068] Figure 4 is a rear view of the detector 100. Referring to Figure 4, the support member 230 may be formed in at least a portion of the area of ​​the intermediate plate 210. The support member 230 may be connected to the intermediate plate 210. The support member 230 may be connected to an area of ​​the support member that is included in at least a portion of the area of ​​the intermediate plate. Here, the area of ​​the support member 230 and the area of ​​the intermediate plate 210 may refer to an area in the plane formed by the first direction and the second direction. The area of ​​the support member may be smaller than or the same as the area of ​​the intermediate plate. The area of ​​the support member 230 may be included in the area of ​​the intermediate plate 210. The support member 230 may be connected to a portion of the area of ​​the intermediate plate 210. For example, the support member 230 may be formed along the edge of the intermediate plate 210. However, it is not limited to this, and the support member 230 may occupy an area that includes the center of the intermediate plate 210.

[0069] The support member 230 can be embodied as one of the support member 410 of the first embodiment, the support member 420 of the second embodiment, the support member 430 of the third embodiment, and the support member 440 of the fourth embodiment. This disclosure will be described based on the support member 440 of the fourth embodiment. However, it is not limited thereto, and the support member 230 can be embodied not only as one of the first to fourth embodiments, but also in an embodiment different from the first to fourth embodiments.

[0070] The support member 410 of the first embodiment can be formed as a single unit. Because the support member 410 of the first embodiment is formed as a single unit, it is easy to assemble.

[0071] The support member 420 of the second embodiment may include a plurality of sub-support members 421 to 424. More specifically, the support member 420 of the second embodiment may include a first support member 421, a second support member 422, a third support member 423, and a fourth support member 424. The first support member 421 and the third support member 423 may be extended laterally. The second support member 422 and the fourth support member 424 may be extended vertically and may be positioned between the first support member 421 and the third support member 423.

[0072] The third form of the support member 430 may include a plurality of sub-support members 431 to 434. More specifically, the third form of the support member 430 may include a first support member 431, a second support member 432, a third support member 433, and a fourth support member 434. The second support member 432 and the fourth support member 434 may be extended vertically. The first support member 431 and the third support member 433 may be extended horizontally. The first support member 431 and the third support member 433 may be positioned between the second support member 432 and the fourth support member 434.

[0073] The support member 440 of the fourth embodiment can have any form. The support member 440 of the fourth embodiment can be optimized to best protect the components included in the detector 100. The support member 440 of the fourth embodiment can protect the components included in the detector 100 from external forces and prevent twisting and distortion of the detector 100. In particular, the detector 100 of this disclosure has the effect of preventing the detection panel from being damaged by external forces. Furthermore, the detector 100 including the support member 440 of the fourth embodiment of this disclosure has the effect of achieving slimmer and smaller size of the detector 100 by optimizing the arrangement of the components.

[0074] The fourth form of the support member 440 may include a plurality of sub-support members 441 to 444. More specifically, the fourth form of the support member 440 may include a first support member 441, a second support member 442, a third support member 443, and a fourth support member 444. The second support member 442 and the fourth support member 444 may be extended vertically. The first support member 441 and the third support member 443 may be extended horizontally. The second support member 442 may be positioned between the first support member 441 and the third support member 443. The fourth support member 444 may also be extended from the right side of the first support member 441 to the top of the third support member.

[0075] The support member 230 can include multiple support members. That is, the support member 230 can function as a support member 230 by including one of the support member 420 of the second form, the support member 430 of the third form, and the support member 440, along with four independent sub-support members. Unlike in Figure 4, the support member 230 can be realized with two independent sub-support members, three independent sub-support members, or four or more independent sub-support members. The more sub-support members there are, the more reinforcement can be added where needed, thus increasing the rigidity of the detector 100. Also, the fewer sub-support members there are, the easier the detector 100 can be assembled.

[0076] Referring again to Figure 3, the intermediate plate 210 may have a section for the support member 230. For example, the intermediate plate 210 may include a first support member connection section 310, a second support member connection section 320, a third support member connection section 330, and a fourth support member connection section 340. The intermediate plate 210 may be provided with screw connection holes for screws that pass through the support member 230. At least one of the first support member connection section 310, the second support member connection section 320, the third support member connection section 330, and the fourth support member connection section 340 may have a screw hole 350 formed therein.

[0077] At least one of the first support member coupling portion 310, the second support member coupling portion 320, the third support member coupling portion 330, and the fourth support member coupling portion 340 can be firmly connected to the support member 230 with screws. For example, the first support member coupling portion 310, the second support member coupling portion 320, and the fourth support member coupling portion 340 can be firmly connected to the first support member, the second support member, and the fourth support member with screws. In addition, the third support member coupling portion 330 and the third support member can be connected by an adhesive layer.

[0078] A groove may be formed in at least one of the first support member connecting portion 310, the second support member connecting portion 320, the third support member connecting portion 330, and the fourth support member connecting portion 340, and the support member 230 can be inserted into the groove and connected. Therefore, the support member 230 and the intermediate plate 210 can be firmly connected, and assembly can be improved.

[0079] Figure 5 is a view of the intermediate plate and support member according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, as seen from the rear.

[0080] Referring to Figure 5, the intermediate plate 210 and the support member 230 can be joined by an adhesive layer. The first support member 610 can be joined to the intermediate plate 210 by the first adhesive layer 510. The second support member 620 can be joined to the intermediate plate 210 by the second adhesive layer 520. The third support member 630 can be joined to the intermediate plate 210 by the third adhesive layer 530. The fourth support member 640 can be joined to the intermediate plate 210 by the fourth adhesive layer 540. The first adhesive layers 510 to the fourth adhesive layers 540 can be located on the same plane, but are not limited thereto.

[0081] Figure 6 is a drawing illustrating a support member according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 is also a drawing illustrating a support member according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0082] Figures 6 and 7 are perspective views of a support member according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, viewed from the rear. Figure 7 shows the support member 230 viewed from a different angle than in Figure 6 to show the bending of the support member 230 in more detail.

[0083] The support member 230 may include a first support member 610, a second support member 620, a third support member 630, and a fourth support member 640. Multiple holes can be formed in the support member 230 to reduce its weight. The multiple holes formed in the support member 230 also allow air to flow freely, enabling efficient cooling of the detector 100. Furthermore, since the support member 230 is made of a material with high thermal conductivity, heat can be effectively dissipated. Therefore, the heat-sensitive detection panel 110 can produce high-quality radiation images. In addition, the support member 230 prevents twisting of the detector 100 and has the effect of protecting the detector 100 from external impacts. In particular, it has the effect of preventing damage to the detection panel contained in the detector 100 due to external forces.

[0084] Furthermore, since the support member 230 has screw holes 650 formed therein, the screws can be fixed to the support member 230 and the intermediate plate 210 by passing through the screw holes 650 of the support member 230 and fixing them to the screw holes 350 of the intermediate plate 210.

[0085] The support member 230 in Figure 6 can have the same configuration as the support member 440 in the fourth embodiment of Figure 4.

[0086] The support member 230 may include at least one connecting surface and an inclined surface. The connecting surface may include at least two of the first connecting surface 811 to the sixth connecting surface 915. The inclined surface may also include at least two of the first inclined surface 812 to the fourth inclined surface 914.

[0087] Multiple holes may be formed on at least one of the connecting surfaces or inclined surfaces. For example, multiple holes may be formed on at least one of the second connecting surface 813 and the third connecting surface 815. Multiple holes may be formed on the second connecting surface 813 of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, and the fourth support member 640. Also, multiple holes may be formed on the third connecting surface 815 of the third support member 630. The extension direction of the multiple holes may be perpendicular to the extension direction of the support member. For example, the extension direction of the first support member 610 may be the second direction. That is, the length of the first support member 610 in the second direction may be longer than the length in the first direction. The second direction may be, for example, the left side. The extension direction of the multiple holes formed on the second connecting surface 813 of the first support member 610 may be the first direction perpendicular to the second direction. That is, the length of one of the multiple holes in the first direction may be longer than the length in the second direction. The first direction may be, for example, the upward direction.

[0088] The multiple holes formed in the second connecting surface 813 may have rectangular shapes, with a length in either the first or second direction being longer than the length in either the first or second direction, while the multiple holes formed in the third connecting surface 815 may have square shapes. The size of one of the multiple holes formed in the second connecting surface 813 may be larger than the size of one of the multiple holes formed in the third connecting surface 815. Thus, the reason why the shapes and sizes of the multiple holes formed in the second connecting surface 813 and the third connecting surface 815 differ may be due to differences in the components and functions located near the second connecting surface 813 or the third connecting surface 815. The third connecting surface 815 may be located closer to the edge of the detector 100 than the second connecting surface 813. Since the third connecting surface 815 is located closer to the edge of the detector 100, it must have higher rigidity. Therefore, the size of the holes formed in the third connecting surface 815 may be smaller. Also, the second connecting surface 813 may be closer to the control board, power supply board, or battery 1030, etc., than the third connecting surface 815. To effectively dissipate the heat generated by such control boards, power supply boards, or batteries 1030 to the outside, the holes formed in the second connecting surface 813 are larger than the holes formed in the third connecting surface 815, thereby allowing for smoother airflow.

[0089] The first support member 610 extends in a second direction and can be positioned in the first direction portion of the intermediate plate. In this disclosure, the second direction may mean the left side, but is not limited thereto, and may mean the right side. Also, the first direction may mean the upper side, but is not limited thereto, and may mean the lower side.

[0090] The first support member extends to the left and can be positioned in the upper portion of the middle plate.

[0091] The second support member 620 may extend from at least a portion of the first support member 610 on the side opposite to the first direction in the opposite direction. The second support member 620 may also be located in the second direction portion of the intermediate plate 210.

[0092] The second support member extends downward from at least a portion of the lower side of the first support member and can be located in the left-side portion of the intermediate plate.

[0093] The third support member 630 may extend from at least a portion of the second support member 620 on the side opposite to the first direction in the opposite direction to the second direction. The third support member 630 may be located on the portion of the intermediate plate 210 opposite to the first direction.

[0094] The third support member extends to the right from at least a portion of the lower side of the second support member and can be located in the lower portion of the intermediate plate.

[0095] The fourth support member 640 may extend in the first direction from at least a portion of the third support member 630 on the first direction side to at least a portion of the first support member 610 on the opposite side of the second direction. The fourth support member 640 may be located in the portion of the intermediate plate 210 that is opposite to the second direction.

[0096] The fourth support member extends upward from at least a portion of the upper side of the third support member to at least a portion of the right side of the first support member, and can be positioned in the right-side portion of the intermediate plate.

[0097] Figure 8 shows a cross-section of a detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 9 shows a cross-section of a detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0098] Figure 8 shows a cross-section of the support member 230 having a partially trapezoidal shape. Figure 9 shows a cross-section of the support member 230 having a partially inverted trapezoidal shape.

[0099] Referring to Figure 8 along with Figure 2 below, at least a portion of the support member 230 may include at least one of the first connecting surface 811, the first inclined surface 812, the second connecting surface 813, the second inclined surface 814, and the third connecting surface 815. At least a portion of one of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640 may have at least one of the first connecting surface 811, the first inclined surface 812, the second connecting surface 813, the second inclined surface 814, and the third connecting surface 815 formed thereon. The first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640 all include a first connecting surface 811, a first inclined surface 812, a second connecting surface 813, a second inclined surface 814, and a third connecting surface 815, but the first connecting surface 811, the first inclined surface 812, the second connecting surface 813, the second inclined surface 814, and the third connecting surface 815 may be formed in only a portion of one of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640. For example, the first connecting surface 811 may be formed in only a portion of the length of the first support member 610.

[0100] The first connecting surface 811 is connected to the rear surface 123 of the housing 120 and may be parallel to the rear surface 123 of the housing 120. The first connecting surface 811 may be bonded to the rear surface 123 of the housing 120 by adhesive or screws. However, it is not limited to this, and the first connecting surface 811 may be in contact with or connected to the intermediate plate 210. The first connecting surface 811 may be connected to at least one of the rear surface 123 and the intermediate plate 210. By connecting the first connecting surface 811 to the rear surface 123 and the intermediate plate 210, the detector 100 may become even more rigid. Alternatively, the first connecting surface 811 may be connected to either the rear surface 123 or the intermediate plate 210 to block the transmission of external forces of the detector 100 to the interior.

[0101] The first inclined surface 812 is connected to the first connecting surface 811 and can have a predetermined inclination angle with respect to the rear surface 123. For example, the predetermined inclination angle may be between 40 and 50 degrees. The more parallel the first inclined surface 812 is to the first connecting surface 811, the less effective it may be in protecting the internal components of the detector 100 from external forces and preventing twisting of the detector 100. Also, the more perpendicular the first inclined surface 812 is to the first connecting surface 811, the longer the distance the radiation passes through the first inclined surface 812, and the more likely the first inclined surface 812 is to appear in the radiation image. In other words, the quality of the radiation image may be reduced. In particular, when the support member 230 is made of a material with low radiation transparency, a back scattering phenomenon may occur depending on the distance the radiation passes through the support member 230. In other words, the shape of the support member 230 may appear in the image. However, when using a trapezoidal or inverted trapezoidal support member 230 formed by the first connecting surface 811, the first inclined surface 812, the second connecting surface 813, the second inclined surface 814, or the third connecting surface 815, the back scattering phenomenon can be minimized. This is because the distance over which radiation passes through the support member 230 becomes approximately the same across the entire area of ​​the detector 100.

[0102] Furthermore, the first inclined surface 812 and the second inclined surface 814 create a curved portion in the support member 230, which increases its rigidity. This allows for reduced weight because high rigidity can be maintained even if the length of the support member 230 is reduced.

[0103] When the predetermined inclination angle is between 40 and 50 degrees, the support member 230 can protect the internal components of the detector 100 and prevent twisting while minimizing its impact on the radiographic image. The first inclined surface 812 can have a thickness thinner than at least one of the first connecting surface 811, the second connecting surface 813, and the third connecting surface 815. Furthermore, if the support member 230 is made of a radiotransparent material, it can further minimize the impact of the first inclined surface 812 on the image.

[0104] Of course, if the support member 230 is made using a material with high radiotransparency, such back scattering phenomena will not occur, and the pre-set inclination angle can be between 10 degrees and 90 degrees.

[0105] The second connecting surface 813 is connected to the first inclined surface 812, connected to the intermediate plate 210, and may be parallel to the intermediate plate 210. The second connecting surface 813 may be joined to the rear surface of the intermediate plate 210 by adhesive or screws. However, it is not limited thereto, and the second connecting surface 813 may be in contact with or connected to the rear surface 123. The second connecting surface 813 may be connected to at least one of the rear surface 123 and the intermediate plate 210.

[0106] Since multiple holes are formed in the second connecting surface 813, the air inside the detector 100 can be circulated smoothly, and the airflow can cool the inside of the detector 100. Therefore, the detection panel 110 can acquire radiation images without being affected by heat, and consequently, the detector 100 can acquire high-quality radiation images.

[0107] The width 641 of the second connecting surface 813 may be greater than or equal to the width of at least one of the first connecting surface 811, the first inclined surface 812, the second inclined surface 814, and the third connecting surface 815. Here, width may represent the length in the direction from the center of the detector 100 toward the edge. In particular, the width of the second connecting surface 813 of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, and the fourth support member 640 may be greater than or equal to the width of at least one of the first connecting surface 811, the first inclined surface 812, the second inclined surface 814, and the third connecting surface 815. However, it is not limited to this. The width of the second connecting surface 813 of the third support member 630 may be less than the width of at least one of the first connecting surface 811, the first inclined surface 812, the second inclined surface 814, and the third connecting surface 815. Furthermore, the width of the third connecting surface 710 of the third support member 630 may be greater than or equal to the width of the first and second connecting surfaces of the third support member 630.

[0108] The width of at least one of the second connecting surfaces 813 of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640 does not have to be constant. For example, the width of the first support member 610 may have a long width 611 and a short width 612. Also, the width of the second support member 620 may have a long width 621 and a short width 622.

[0109] Various components can be positioned behind the second connecting surface 813. For example, components such as a control board can be positioned behind the second connecting surface 813 to minimize twisting and reduce the defect rate. In addition, the second connecting surface 813 can protect the control board from external impacts.

[0110] The second inclined surface 814 is connected to the second connecting surface 813 and can have a predetermined inclination angle with respect to the rear surface 123 of the housing 120. The second inclined surface 814 does not have to be parallel to the first inclined surface 812. For example, the predetermined inclination angle may be between 40 and 50 degrees. When the predetermined inclination angle is between 40 and 50 degrees, the support member 230 can protect the internal components of the detector 100 and prevent twisting while minimizing its impact on the radiographic image. The second inclined surface 814 can have a thickness thinner than at least one of the first connecting surface 811, the second connecting surface 813, and the third connecting surface 815. Furthermore, using a radiotransparent material for the support member 230 can minimize the impact of the second inclined surface 814 on the image.

[0111] The first inclined surface 812 and the second inclined surface 814 do not have to be parallel. The first inclined surface 812 and the second inclined surface 814 can have predetermined angles with respect to the intermediate plate 210 or the rear surface 123 of the housing 120. Of the trapezoidal shape formed by the cross-section of the support member 230, the first inclined surface 812 and the second inclined surface 814 may correspond to the side surfaces of the trapezoid.

[0112] The third connecting surface 815 is connected to the second inclined surface 814 and may be connected to the rear surface 123 of the housing 120. The third connecting surface 815 may be parallel to the rear surface 123. However, it is not limited to this, and the third connecting surface 815 may be in contact with or connected to the intermediate plate 210. The third connecting surface 815 may be connected to at least one of the rear surface 123 and the intermediate plate 210.

[0113] In Figure 2, the third connecting surface 815 extends in the opposite direction to the second direction, and in Figure 8, the third connecting surface 815 may extend in the second direction. At least one of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640 may have at least one of the configurations of the third connecting surface 815 in Figure 2 and the configuration of the third connecting surface 815 in Figure 8. For example, referring to Figure 6, the upper side of the second support member 620 has the configuration of the third connecting surface 815 in Figure 2, and the lower side of the second support member 620 has the configuration of the third connecting surface 815 in Figure 8.

[0114] The third connecting surface 815 can be located on the edge of the detector 100, relative to the first connecting surface 811 or the second connecting surface 813. The third connecting surface 815 of at least one of the first support member 610, second support member 620, third support member 630, and fourth support member 640 can include multiple holes. The multiple holes can allow air inside the detector 100 to circulate smoothly, and the airflow can cool the inside of the detector 100. For example, the third connecting surface 710 of the third support member 630 in Figure 7 can include multiple holes. The shape of the multiple holes formed on the third connecting surface 710 of the third support member 630 may be approximately square. The shape of the multiple holes formed on the second connecting surfaces 813 of the first support member 610, second support member 620, and fourth support member 640 may be rectangular and may be larger than the size of the holes in the third support member 630. Although the width of the third support member 630 is smaller than or the same as that of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, and the fourth support member 640, the strength of the third support member 630 may be approximately the same as that of the other support members because the multiple holes formed in the third support member 630 are relatively small. In addition, the multiple holes allow the support member 230 to be made lighter, which can improve cooling efficiency.

[0115] The width of the third connecting surface 710 of the third support member 630 may be greater than or equal to the width of the first and second connecting surfaces of the third support member 630. The third support member 630 can have a larger surface area that contacts the rear surface 123.

[0116] The first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640 have the shapes shown in Figure 8, thereby minimizing twisting of the detector 100 and protecting the internal components of the detector 100 from external forces. Furthermore, the support member 230 shown in Figure 8 allows for efficient use of the internal space of the detector 100, enabling the detector 100 to be made thinner and the bezel to be minimized. In other words, the detector 100 can be made smaller and lighter.

[0117] At least two of the rear surface 123, the first inclined surface 812, the second connecting surface 813, and the second inclined surface 814 can form the first space 820. The first space 820 can correspond to the recess 231. The detector 100 may include filler located in the first space 820. However, filler can also be located in spaces other than the first space 820. Since filler has been described above, a redundant explanation will be omitted.

[0118] The detector 100 may further include a second space 831 and a third space 832. The second space 831 may be a space formed by at least two of the intermediate plate 210, the first connecting surface 811, the rear surface 123, and the first inclined surface 812. The third space 832 may be a space formed by at least two of the intermediate plate 210, the second inclined surface 814, the rear surface 123, and the third connecting surface 815. The detector 100 may further include filler material in at least one of the second space 831 and the third space 832.

[0119] Components of the detector 100 can be located in at least one of the first space 820, the second space 831, and the third space 832. For example, at least one of the first space 820, the second space 831, and the third space 832 may include at least one of the coil 1010, the power supply board 1020, the battery 1030, and the control board 1040. The support member 230 increases the rigidity of the detector 100, preventing twisting of the detector 100, while also ensuring that the various components included in the detector 100 are not affected by external forces.

[0120] As mentioned above, Figure 9 shows the inverted trapezoidal support member 230.

[0121] Referring to Figure 9, at least a portion of the support member 230 may include at least one of the fourth connecting surface 911, the third inclined surface 912, the fifth connecting surface 913, the fourth inclined surface 914, and the sixth connecting surface 915. At least a portion of one of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640 may have at least one of the fourth connecting surface 911, the third inclined surface 912, the fifth connecting surface 913, the fourth inclined surface 914, and the sixth connecting surface 915 formed thereon. The first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640 all include a fourth connecting surface 911, a third inclined surface 912, a fifth connecting surface 913, a fourth inclined surface 914, and a sixth connecting surface 915, but the fourth connecting surface 911, the third inclined surface 912, the fifth connecting surface 913, the fourth inclined surface 914, and the sixth connecting surface 915 may be formed in only a portion of one of the first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640. For example, the fourth connecting surface 911 may be formed in only a portion of the length of the first support member 610.

[0122] The fourth connecting surface 911 is connected to the intermediate plate 210 and may be parallel to the intermediate plate 210. However, it is not limited to this, and the fourth connecting surface 911 may be in contact with or connected to the rear surface 123. If the configuration of being connected to the rear surface 123 is modified to be connected to the intermediate plate 210, the description for the first connecting surface 811 can be applied to the fourth connecting surface 911.

[0123] The third inclined surface 912 is connected to the fourth connecting surface 911 and can have a predetermined inclination angle with respect to the intermediate plate 210. The description for the first inclined surface 812 can be applied to the third inclined surface 912.

[0124] The fifth connecting surface 913 is connected to the third inclined surface 912 and to the rear surface 123 of the housing 120, and may be parallel to the rear surface 123. However, it is not limited to this, and the fifth connecting surface 913 may be in contact with or connected to the intermediate plate 210. The description for the second connecting surface 813 can be applied to the fifth connecting surface 913 by modifying the configuration of being connected to the intermediate plate 210 to being connected to the rear surface 123.

[0125] The fourth inclined surface 914 is connected to the fifth connecting surface 913 and has a predetermined inclination angle with respect to the intermediate plate 210, and does not necessarily have to be parallel to the third inclined surface 912. The description for the second inclined surface 814 may be applied to the fourth inclined surface 914.

[0126] The sixth connecting surface 915 is connected to the fourth inclined surface 914, connected to the intermediate plate 210, and may be parallel to the intermediate plate 210. However, it is not limited to this, and the sixth connecting surface 915 may be in contact with or connected to the rear surface 123. If the configuration of being connected to the rear surface 123 is modified to be connected to the intermediate plate 210, the description for the third connecting surface 815 can be applied to the sixth connecting surface 915.

[0127] At least two of the intermediate plate 210, the third inclined surface 912, the fifth connecting surface 913, and the fourth inclined surface 914 can form the fourth space 920. The fourth space 920 can correspond to the recess 231. The detector 100 may include filler located in the fourth space 920. However, filler can also be located in spaces other than the fourth space 920. Since filler has been described above, a redundant explanation will be omitted.

[0128] The detector 100 may further include a fifth space 931 and a sixth space 932. The fifth space 931 may be a space formed by at least two of the intermediate plate 210, the fourth connecting surface 911, the rear surface 123, and the third inclined surface 912. The sixth space 932 may be a space formed by at least two of the intermediate plate 210, the fourth inclined surface 914, the rear surface 123, and the sixth connecting surface 915. The detector 100 may further include filler in at least one of the fifth space 931 and the sixth space 932.

[0129] Figure 10 may be a diagram illustrating the configuration included in a detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0130] Figure 10 is a view of the detector 100 from the rear.

[0131] The detector 100 may include a receiving coil 1010 for wireless charging. The receiving coil 1010 can correspond to a coil 1010. The receiving coil 1010 can receive energy from an external source to charge the battery 1030.

[0132] The detector 100 may include a power supply board 1020. The power supply board 1020 can convert the energy received from the receiving coil 1010 into electrical energy for charging the battery 1030, or convert the energy from the battery 1030 into electrical energy for consumption by the detector 100.

[0133] The Detector 100's battery 1030 may be removable, but is not limited to that.

[0134] The battery 1030 can be located where the support member 230 is not formed. That is, the detector 100 can include the battery 1030 in the region of the middle plate where the support member is not formed. The thickness of the cells contained in the battery 1030 may be less than or the same as the thickness of the support member 230. However, it is not limited to this, and the thickness of the cells contained in the battery 1030 may be greater than the thickness of the support member 230. Also, the support member 230 may have a configuration that surrounds the battery 1030 on the plane formed by the first direction and the second direction.

[0135] A space for the battery may be formed in the area of ​​the intermediate plate where no support members are formed. The combined size of the support member area and the battery area may be smaller than or equal to the size of the intermediate plate area. The area of ​​the intermediate plate excluding the support member area and the battery area can be called the remaining area. The remaining area may be a space where screw holes are formed for connecting components, a space for electronic components, or a space for circulating air. In this disclosure, at least one of the intermediate plate area, the support member area, and the battery area may mean an area on the plane formed by the first direction and the second direction. When an external shock is applied, the support member 230 can absorb the shock so that it is not transmitted to the battery 1030.

[0136] For example, the battery 1030 can be positioned in the space formed by the first support member 610, the second support member 620, the third support member 630, and the fourth support member 640. That is, the first support member 610 can be positioned above the battery 1030, the second support member 620 on the left side, the third support member 630 on the bottom side, and the fourth support member 640 on the right side. Since the battery 1030 is protected on all four sides by the support members 230, the battery 1030 can be hardly affected by external impacts. Therefore, the detector 100 of this disclosure can be very safe.

[0137] The detector 100 may include a control board 1040. The control board 1040 may include at least one of a control unit, a communication unit, an input unit, and an output unit.

[0138] As mentioned above, the filler material 1050 can be placed in the recess included in the support member 230. The filler material 1050 can serve to fill the empty space inside the detector. The hole formed in the support member 230 may be a space formed for the filler material 1050 to be firmly bonded to the support member 230. The filler material 1050 not only absorbs external forces, but also enhances the durability of the detector 100 by ensuring that the internal components of the detector 100 remain in the same position relative to each other even when external forces are applied to the detector 100.

[0139] Figure 11 is a diagram illustrating a radiation detection panel according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0140] The radiation detection panel 110 of this disclosure may include a front scintillator 3110, a TFT panel 3120, and a rear scintillator 3130.

[0141] The front scintillator 3110 may be configured to receive radiation and emit it as visible light. The TFT panel 3120 may be located behind the front scintillator 3110. The rear scintillator 3130 may be located behind the TFT panel 3120.

[0142] Figure 12 is a diagram illustrating the radiation detection panel of this disclosure in more detail.

[0143] Figure 12 illustrates one embodiment of the present disclosure, and the radiation detection panel may utilize a variety of scintillators and TFTs different from those shown in Figure 12.

[0144] The front scintillator 3110 may include a support layer 3211 and a photoconversion layer 3212. The support layer 3211 may be located in front of the photoconversion layer 3212. The support layer 3211 may be configured to protect the surface of the photoconversion layer 3212. Alternatively, the support layer 3211 may be configured to maintain the shape of the photoconversion layer 3212. The photoconversion layer 3212 may include GADOX. That is, the front scintillator 3110 may be a GADOX sheet including the support layer 3211 and the photoconversion layer 3212.

[0145] The TFT panel 3120 may include a pixel array (3221) and a panel supporting layer (3222). The pixel array 3221 may include an a-Si (Amorphous Silicon) array. The panel supporting layer 3222 may include a PI (Polyimide) layer. The panel supporting layer 3222 may include a heat-resistant substrate such as a semiconductor substrate, a quartz substrate, or a glass substrate. The panel supporting layer 3222 may also include a flexible substrate such as plastic, aramid, or bio-nanofibers.

[0146] The TFT panel 3120 can be bonded to the front scintillator 3110 by an adhesive film 3240. Alternatively, the TFT panel 3120 can be bonded to the rear scintillator 3130 by an adhesive film 3250.

[0147] The rear scintillator 3130 may include a support layer 3231 and a photoconversion layer 3232. The support layer 3231 may be located on the rear surface of the photoconversion layer 3232. The support layer 3231 may be configured to protect the surface of the photoconversion layer 3232. The support layer 3231 may also be configured to maintain the shape of the photoconversion layer 3232. The photoconversion layer 3232 may contain GADOX. That is, the rear scintillator 3130 may be a GADOX sheet including the support layer 3231 and the photoconversion layer 3232.

[0148] The front and rear surfaces of the radiation detection panel can be protected by positioning support layer 3211 at the front of the radiation detection panel and support layer 3231 at the rear of the radiation detection panel. Furthermore, the distance between the optical conversion layers 3212, 3232 and the TFT panel 3120 can be minimized by positioning optical conversion layer 3212 at the front of the TFT panel 3120 and optical conversion layer 3232 at the rear of the TFT panel 3120. The optical conversion layers 3212, 3232 can emit visible light based on the received radiation. The TFT panel 3120 can receive visible light and generate an electrical signal. The radiation detector can acquire a radiation image based on the electrical signal.

[0149] Figure 13 is a diagram illustrating a scintillator according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0150] As mentioned above, at least one of the front scintillator and the rear scintillator can be a GADOX sheet. In this case, the density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may differ from the density of the GADOX crystals in the rear scintillator. However, it is not limited to this, and the density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may be independent of the density of the GADOX crystals in the rear scintillator. That is, the density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may not affect the density of the GADOX crystals in the rear scintillator. The density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may be determined independently of the density of the GADOX crystals in the rear scintillator. That is, the density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may be the same as or different from the density of the GADOX crystals in the rear scintillator.

[0151] For example, the density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may be lower than that of the GADOX crystals in the rear scintillator. The density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may be the same as that of the rear scintillator. The density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may be the same as or lower than that of the rear scintillator. However, it is not limited to these. The density of the GADOX crystals in the front scintillator may be higher than that of the rear scintillator.

[0152] The photoconversion layer 3212 of the front scintillator 3110 and the photoconversion layer 3232 of the rear scintillator 3130 may contain GADOX crystals. The properties of the front scintillator 3110 and the rear scintillator 3130 may vary depending on the density and thickness of the GADOX crystals in the photoconversion layers 3212 and 3232. The GADOX crystal density may refer to the density of GADOX crystals contained in the photoconversion layers 3212 and 3232.

[0153] A low density of GADOX crystals means that there are fewer GADOX crystals per unit area that react to radiation. Therefore, the low-density GADOX crystals contained in the scintillator 3310 will generate relatively less visible light. When using low-density GADOX crystals, a sharp image can be obtained. This is because the visible light received by one pixel of the TFT panel 3320 is likely to be visible light generated by a single GADOX crystal. In other words, when a radiation detector uses low-density GADOX crystals, an image with high MTF (modulation transfer function), low sensitivity, and low noise can be obtained. Therefore, when a radiation detector uses low-density GADOX crystals, it can obtain an image with higher clarity relative to the subject compared to when using high-density GADOX crystals.

[0154] A high density of GADOX crystals means that there are many GADOX crystals per unit area that react to radiation. Therefore, GADOX crystals with a high density contained in scintillator 3330 will generate relatively more visible light. High-density GADOX crystals generate a large amount of light even with a small amount of radiation, allowing the radiation detector to obtain a highly sensitive image. However, when a radiation detector uses high-density GADOX crystals, it can obtain an image with lower sharpness than when using low-density GADOX crystals. This is because a single pixel in the TFT panel 3340 receives visible light generated by multiple GADOX crystals. In other words, a radiation detector containing high-density GADOX crystals can obtain an image with a low MTF, high sensitivity, and high noise. When a radiation detector uses high-density GADOX crystals, it can obtain an image with higher sensitivity to radiation compared to when using low-density GADOX crystals.

[0155] Referring again to Figure 12, the radiation passes through the low-density front scintillator 3110 and TFT panel 3120 before reaching the high-density rear scintillator 3130. Since the relatively high-density rear scintillator 3130 reacts towards the TFT panel 3120, the closer the radiation detector is to the TFT panel 3120, the higher the sensitivity of the image it can obtain.

[0156] By including a front scintillator 3110, a TFT panel 3120, and a rear scintillator 3130 in the radiation detection panel, the radiation detector can acquire images that reflect the characteristics of the optical conversion layers 3212 and 3232, which contain GADOX crystals of different densities. Through this, the radiation detector can acquire improved radiation images by compensating for the disadvantages of the optical conversion layers 3212 and 3232 with different densities.

[0157] As mentioned above, at least one of the front scintillator and rear scintillator is a GADOX sheet, and the thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may differ from the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130. However, it is not limited to this, and the thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may be independent of the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130. The thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may not affect the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130. The thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may be determined regardless of the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130. That is, the thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may or may not be the same as the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130.

[0158] For example, the thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may be thinner than or the same as the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130. Alternatively, the thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may be thinner than the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130. The thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may be the same as the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130. However, it is not limited to these, and the thickness of the front scintillator 3110 may be thicker than the thickness of the rear scintillator 3130.

[0159] If the thickness of the optical conversion layer 3212 of the front scintillator 3110 is thinner than the thickness of the optical conversion layer 3232 of the rear scintillator 3130, image quality and sensitivity may be improved. Also, if the area of ​​the optical conversion layer 3212 of the front scintillator 3110 is smaller than the area of ​​the optical conversion layer 3232 of the rear scintillator 3130, image quality and sensitivity may be improved. A radiation detector that uses both the front scintillator 3110 and the rear scintillator 3130 can have improved spatial resolution and higher dose efficiency than a radiation detector that uses only one of the two. This may also improve the sharpness of the image. By including the front scintillator 3110, the TFT panel 3120, and the rear scintillator 3130 in the radiation detection panel, the radiation detector can acquire an image that reflects the characteristics of the optical conversion layers 3212 and 3232, which have different thicknesses and areas. By compensating for the shortcomings of the light conversion layers 3212 and 3232, which have different thicknesses and areas, the radiation detector can obtain improved radiation images.

[0160] As mentioned above, at least one of the front scintillator and rear scintillator can be a GADOX sheet. Furthermore, the front scintillator can have a higher modulation transfer function (MTF), lower sensitivity, and lower noise than the rear scintillator. As mentioned above, by adjusting at least one of the density, thickness, and area of ​​the front and rear scintillators, the front scintillator can have a higher modulation transfer function (MTF), lower sensitivity, and lower noise than the rear scintillator. However, this is not the only way; various methods can be used to make the front scintillator have a higher modulation transfer function (MTF), lower sensitivity, and lower noise than the rear scintillator.

[0161] The above describes the case where both the front and rear scintillators contain GADOX sheets. GADOX is a photoconversion layer with high sensitivity to high-energy radiation, and when both the front and rear scintillators contain GADOX sheets, the sensitivity can be higher than when there is only one scintillator. Therefore, the radiation detector can obtain a clear image.

[0162] However, it is not limited to this. One of the front and rear scintillators may be a GADOX sheet, and the other may be either CsI (cesium iodide) or perovskite. Thus, even if only one is a GADOX sheet, the radiation detector can have all the advantages of both the GADOX sheet and the non-GADOX sheet material.

[0163] The radiation detector of this disclosure may be a bendable detector including a flexible TFT. Furthermore, as mentioned above, the radiation detector may include a front scintillator and a rear scintillator containing a GADOX sheet. When the front and rear scintillators contain a GADOX sheet, there are advantages compared to using scintillators of other materials, as follows: High-energy industrial radiation sources can create high afterimages within CsI. Therefore, a radiation detector containing a CsI scintillator may acquire an image with afterimages (noise), resulting in an unclear image. Conversely, a radiation detector containing a front and rear scintillator containing a GADOX sheet can acquire a clear image.

[0164] Furthermore, scintillators containing CsI may experience damage to their columnar structure during repeated bending. When the columnar structure is damaged, the efficiency of converting radiation to visible light decreases, potentially degrading image quality. However, radiation detectors containing front and rear scintillators with GADOX sheets can consistently produce clear images even after repeated bending.

[0165] Therefore, in the case of a radiation detector that uses both a scintillator containing CsI and a scintillator containing a GADOX sheet, the rear scintillator may contain CsI and the front scintillator may contain a GADOX sheet. This is because the curvature of the rear scintillator should be relatively smaller. Also, since the radiation passes through the front scintillator and the TFT panel before reaching the rear scintillator, the afterimage should not be large. However, this is not the only possible scenario.

[0166] Although GADOX sheets may have lower sensitivity compared to CsI materials, the radiation detector of this disclosure can increase sensitivity by arranging GADOX sheets in a double layer on the front and back surfaces. Therefore, the radiation detector of this disclosure may have the effect of using a highly sensitive photoconversion layer.

[0167] Furthermore, in the case of high-energy X-rays and gamma rays used as industrial radiation detectors, the dose absorbed by the scintillator may be small. This is a cause of prolonged exposure times. However, the radiation detector of this disclosure uses a dual-layer light conversion structure, resulting in high sensitivity and reduced exposure times. This has the effect of reducing radiation exposure for both the subject and the user.

[0168] Furthermore, to increase sensitivity only with a dual light conversion layer, one can use two GADOX sheets with high density or thickness on the front and back surfaces. However, in this case, the sharpness of the image may decrease. Therefore, to increase image sharpness, using two GADOX sheets with low density or thinness can increase sensitivity while maintaining sharpness. In other words, efficiency can be increased by applying the appropriate thickness or density of GADOX to suit the application of the radiation detector, without distinguishing between the front and back of the radiation detection panel. For example, the front and rear scintillators may have the same thin thickness or the same density of GADOX crystals. However, this is not the only option.

[0169] Figure 14 is a diagram illustrating a radiation detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 15 is a diagram illustrating a radiation detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 16 is a diagram illustrating a radiation detector according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0170] Referring to Figure 14, the radiation detector may further include a corner protector 1410 and a corner bracket 1420. The corner protector 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be located at the corners of the housing 120. The corner protector 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be located at at least one of the four corners of the housing 120. The corner protector 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be located at at least one of the upper left corner, lower left corner, lower right corner, or upper right corner of the housing 120. However, they are not limited to these, and the corner protector 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be located on the sides of the housing 120. The corner protector 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be located at at least one of the four sides of the housing 120. The corner protector 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be located on at least one of the left side, right side, upper side, or lower side of the housing 120. Figures 14 to 16 will focus on explaining one of these components: the corner protection section 1410 and the corner bracket 1420.

[0171] The corner protection portion 1410 may be configured to be coupled to the housing to protect the corner or side of the housing. The corner protection portion 1410 may be configured to be coupled to the corner or side of the housing to protect the corner or side of the housing. The corner protection portion 1410 may be configured to be coupled to the corner or side of the housing to protect at least one of the following: the upper left corner, the lower left corner, the lower right corner, the upper right corner, the left side, the right side, the upper side, or the lower side. The corner bracket 1420 may be configured to be coupled to the corner protection portion 1410, with at least a portion of the corner protection portion 1410 being inserted into it, and to fix the corner protection portion 1410 to the housing. Figures 14 to 16 illustrate a structure in which the corner protection portion 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 are coupled to the corner of the housing 120 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Such a description may also apply to a structure in which the corner protection portion 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 are coupled to the side of the housing 120.

[0172] The corner protection portion 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be formed integrally. The corner protection portion 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may also be formed by double injection molding. However, the method is not limited to this, and the corner protection portion 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be formed and assembled individually.

[0173] The material of the corner protection part 1410 may include at least one of urethane, rubber, plastic, or silicone. The material of the corner bracket 1420 may also include at least one of urethane, metal, or plastic. The corner bracket 1420 may also include at least one of aluminum or stainless steel. The corner bracket 1420 may be any one of rubber, plastic, metal, or carbon. The corner bracket 1420 may have a different strength from the corner protection part 1410. However, it is not limited to this, and the corner bracket 1420 may have the same strength as the corner protection part 1410. The strength or hardness of the corner bracket 1420 may be greater than or the same as the strength or hardness of the corner protection part 1410.

[0174] The corner bracket 1420 may include a protective part insertion hole 1421 for inserting the corner protective part 1410. The protective part insertion hole 1421 may be surrounded by a protective part cover 1422. That is, the protective part cover 1422 may have a protective part insertion hole 1421 formed therein for inserting the corner protective part 1410. The corner bracket 1420 may include a coupling plate 1423. The protective part cover 1422 may be connected perpendicularly to the coupling plate 1423. The coupling plate 1423 may be parallel to the rear surface 123 of the housing or the front surface 121 of the housing.

[0175] Spaces 1531, 1532, 1533, and 1534 may be formed between the corner protection part 1410 and the corner bracket 1420. When the corner protection part 1410 is inserted into the corner bracket 1420, spaces 1531, 1532, 1533, and 1534 may be formed between the corner protection part 1410 and the corner bracket 1420. When the corner protection part 1410 is inserted into the corner bracket 1420, spaces 1531, 1532, 1533, and 1534 may exist around the corner protection part 1410 and between the inner surface of the corner bracket 1420. The area formed by the protection part insertion hole 1421 may be larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the corner protection part 1410. As described above, there are spaces 1531, 1532, 1533, and 1534 between the corner protection part 1410 and the corner bracket 1420. Therefore, even if a large force is applied to the corner protection part 1410 due to a fall, contact between the corner protection part 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 can be minimized. In other words, since the corner protection part 1410 transmits almost no force to the corner bracket 1420, deformation of the corner bracket 1420, housing 120, or detection panel 110 can be minimized. Consequently, the durability of the radiation detector can be greatly improved.

[0176] The widths of the front space 1534 and the rear space 1533 between the corner protection part 1410 and the corner bracket 1420 may be greater than or the same as the widths of the first side space 1531 and the second side space 1532. For example, the widths of the front space 1534 and the rear space 1533 may be between 0.65 mm and 0.75 mm, and the widths of the first side space 1531 and the second side space 1532 may be between 0.60 mm and 0.70 mm. When the corner protection part 1410 passes through the corner bracket 1420, the shape of the corner protection part 1410 may be elongated in the front-to-back direction. Therefore, the corner protection part 1410 may be able to withstand forces applied in the front-to-back direction more easily than forces applied in the left-to-right or up-and-down directions. The corner protection part 1410 may deform less due to forces applied in the front-to-back direction. Furthermore, because the widths of the front space 1534 and the rear space 1533 are large, the deformation of the corner protection part 1410 due to forces applied to the front and rear, and its contact with the corner bracket 1420, can be almost completely eliminated. In other words, the corner protection part 1410 can transmit less force to the corner bracket 1420. Therefore, deformation of the corner bracket 1420, housing 120, or detection panel 110 can be minimized. Consequently, the durability of the radiation detector can be greatly improved.

[0177] The corner protection portion 1410 can be coupled to a groove 1510 formed in the housing 120 by sliding forward or backward. The corner protection portion 1410 may include coupling projections 1411. The coupling projections may extend forward or backward. The coupling projections 1411 of the corner protection portion 1410 can slide along the groove 1510 formed in the housing 120, thereby coupling the corner protection portion 1410 to the housing 120. This coupling method between the corner protection portion 1410 and the housing 120 can prevent the corner protection portion 1410 from detaching in the diagonal direction 1610. In Figure 16, the diagonal direction may be the combined direction of the downward and left sides. The corner protection portion 1410 can slide forward relative to the housing and be coupled to the housing 120. The housing 120 may have movement limiting portions 1520 to restrict the movement of the corner protection portion 1410. The movement limiting portion 1520 allows the corner protection portion 1410 to slide forward and stop at a predetermined position. However, it is not limited to this, and the corner protection portion 1410 can slide backward relative to the housing and be coupled to the housing 120.

[0178] Furthermore, although not limited thereto, at least one of the corner protection portion 1410 or the corner bracket 1420 may be bonded to the housing 120. A separate adhesive may be used for bonding. However, although not limited thereto, at least one of the housing 120, the corner protection portion 1410, or the corner bracket 1420 may be bonded by heat without a separate adhesive.

[0179] The corner bracket 1420 is fixed to the housing 120 to prevent the corner protection portion 1410 from detaching from the housing 120. The corner bracket 1420 can be screw-connected to the housing 120. For example, screws can pass through screw holes formed in the connecting plate 1423 of the corner bracket 1420 and connect to the rear surface 123 of the housing 120. However, it is not limited to this, and screws can pass through screw holes formed in the connecting plate 1423 of the corner bracket 1420 and connect to the front surface 121 of the housing 120. However, it is not limited to this, and the corner bracket 1420 may be bonded to the housing 120 with adhesive or physically connected by grooves and protrusions.

[0180] If the corner protection portion 1410 slides forward relative to the housing and connects to the housing 120, the connecting plate 1423 can connect to the rear surface 123 of the housing to prevent the corner protection portion 1410 from detaching backward. If the corner protection portion 1410 slides backward relative to the housing and connects to the housing 120, the connecting plate 1423 can connect to the front surface 121 of the housing to prevent the corner protection portion 1410 from detaching backward. The corner protection portion 1410 can be prevented from moving forward or backward by the movement limiting portion 1520 and the connecting plate 1423.
