Absolute efficiency and modulation transfer function of laboratory prepared La2O2S:Tb phosphor screens of various coating thickness were studied. Detailed experimental data on the variation of absolute efficiency with x-ray tube voltage up to 200 kVp and screen coating thickness in transmission and reflection observation mode are given. Data were compared with similar results from other rare earth phosphor materials. Theoretical calculations were in good agreement with experimental data to permit estimation of intrinsic efficiency and coefficients related to light scattering and absorption within the phosphor material. The MTF of La2O2S:Tb screens was also experimentally and theoretically evaluated.

D008674 Metals, Rare Earth A group of elements that include SCANDIUM; YTTRIUM; and the LANTHANOID SERIES ELEMENTS. Historically, the rare earth metals got their name from the fact that they were never found in their pure elemental form, but as an oxide. In addition, they were very difficult to purify. They are not truly rare and comprise about 25% of the metals in the earth's crust. Rare Earth Metal,Rare Earth Metals,Earth Metal, Rare,Earth Metals, Rare,Metal, Rare Earth

D014963 X-Ray Intensifying Screens Screens which absorb the energy in the x-ray beam that has penetrated the patient and convert this energy into a light pattern which has as nearly as possible the same information as the original x-ray beam. The more light a screen produces for a given input of x-radiation, the less x-ray exposure and thus shorter exposure time are needed to expose the film. In most film-screen systems, the film is sandwiched between two screens in a cassette so that the emulsion on each side is exposed to the light from its contiguous screen.
