Abstract
A storage phosphor panel can include an extruded inorganic storage phosphor layer including a thermoplastic polyolefin and an inorganic storage phosphor material, where the extruded inorganic storage phosphor panel has a DQE comparable to that of a traditional extruded inorganic solvent coated inorganic storage phosphor screen. Also disclosed is an inorganic storage phosphor detection system including an extruded inorganic storage phosphor panel that can include an extruded inorganic storage phosphor layer including a thermoplastic olefin and an inorganic storage phosphor material; and photodetector(s) coupled to the extruded inorganic storage phosphor panel to detect photons generated from the extruded inorganic storage phosphor panel. Further disclosed is a method of making an extruded inorganic storage phosphor panel that can include providing thermoplastic particles including at least one thermoplastic polyolefin and an inorganic storage phosphor material; and melt extruding the thermoplastic particles to form an extruded inorganic storage phosphor layer.
