Image Receptor X Ray. There are two types of digital image receptors or sensors. The x ray photons sensitize the silver halide crystals that they strike and these sensitized silver halide crystals are later reduced to visible black metallic silver in the.
Most receptors are given a nominal speed rating by the manufacturer. X ray generating equipment required to produce the x rays. Low x ray absorbing materials such as thermoset plastic magnesium or even graphite carbon.

Image capture in the ip and image readout. Crystals embedded in a gelatin matrix. A device that changes the x ray beam into a visible image. This chapter summarizes the various image receptors used in dentistry to detect x rays.
