X-ray image intensifier to convert incident x-ray

X-ray image intensifier to convert incident x-ray photons to light photons of sufficient intensity to provide a viewable image.

X-ray image intensifier (XRII) is an image intensifier that converts x-rays into visible light at higher intensity than mere fluorescent screens do. Such intensifiers are used in x-ray imaging systems (such as fluoroscopes) to allow low-intensity x-rays to be converted to a conveniently bright visible light output. The device contains a low absorbency/scatter input window, typically aluminum, input fluorescent screen, photocathode, electron optics, output fluorescent screen and output window. These parts are all mounted in a high vacuum environment within glass or more recently, metal/ceramic. By its intensifying effect, It allows the viewer to more easily see the structure of the object being imaged than fluorescent screens alone, whose images are dim. The X-ray II requires lower absorbed doses due to more efficient conversion of x-ray quanta to visible light. This device was originally introduced in 1948.
Weifang Newheek Electronic Technology Co. Ltd.is the only manufacturer in China that produces Image Intensifier.The NK-23XZ-III X-ray image intensifier 9 inch manufactured by Weifang Newheek Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. is an electronic device that converts X-ray images into visible light image output. It is installed on an X-ray TV device for X-ray fluorescence and radiography. It consists of an X-ray image of multiplier tube, a tube container, a dedicated high-voltage power supply built into the tube container, and a low-voltage power source that drive a high-voltage power supply. The standard light field size of the NK-23XZ-III X-ray image intensifier is 230mm (9 inch), which is mainly suitable for small C-arm (Orthopedics), gastrointestinal machine, industrial tire wheel detection and so on.
