摘要: A panel shaped, proximity type, x-ray image intensifier tube for medical diagnostic use having all linear components and yet a high brightness gain, in the range of 500 to 20,000 cd-sec/m 2 -R, being comprised rugged metallic envelope, an inwardly concave, iron, nickel, chromium alloy input window, full size output display screen, halide activated alkaline-halide scintillator photocathode screen suspended on insulators within envelope between window Z glass reduce backscatter inside outside tube. The can be used direct view, photofluorographic mode, radiographic camera system with remote view T.V. system.
