More Information
Summary:An X-ray imaging detector (102) is proposed, wherein the X-ray imaging detector comprises an X-ray converter (103) for converting X-ray radiation into electrical charges. The X-ray imaging detector further comprises a detector plate (104) for collecting the electrical charges generated by the X-ray converter and for generating an image. In addition, the X-ray imaging detector comprises a structured plate (105) for modulating the intensity of backscattered X-ray radiation, wherein the structured plate is arranged at a side of the detector plate opposite the side of the X-ray converter. Moreover, the X-ray imaging detector comprises a data processing system, which is configured for mitigating image distortions caused by backscattered X-ray radiation. Thereto, the data processing system uses information about the structured plate.
