Summary:A medical imaging system (10) which is readily adaptable to suit specific imaging conditions is disclosed. The system comprises an imaging signal source (12) for transmitting a first imaging signal (13) through a patient's body, a signal detector unit (26) for receiving the first signal (13) and transmitting a second signal (22), and a digital camera for processing the second signal (22) so as to-produce an image of an area of interest within the patient's body. The signal detector unit (36) includes a number of signal detector elements (30) each having different performance characteristics. The system (10) further includes a controller (32) for selecting a signal detector element (30) relative to particular imaging conditions.
