Notes:
A one-coordinate x-ray detector for digital subtraction angiography using synchrotron radiation is described. It comprises two x-ray-sensitive lines, each having 128 independent channels of scintillation counters. The detector is designed to simultaneously measure the intensities of two linear monochromatic beams being 8–10 mm distant from each other. The spatial resolution of each line ranges from 0.2 to 2 mm. The maximum counting rate is 6 MHz for each channel, and the detection efficiency of the 33.2-keV quanta is close to 100%. Preliminary results of the testing of the detector channels on synchrotron radiation beam are given.
