Abstract
An imager panel for an x-ray detector for obtaining x-ray images of an object is provided that includes a first portion disposed at the center of the hybrid imager panel that can produce images of a first resolution and a second portion disposed at least partially around the first portion that is capable of producing images of a second resolution. The hybrid imager panel provides a hybrid detector that can be selectively operated to obtain images of varying resolutions corresponding to the first resolution from the first portion, the second resolution from the second portion or a combination thereof.
