Published in Medical Letter on the CDC and FDA, February 20th, 2005

Researchers examine Lubberts effect in columnar phosphors in a recent issue of Medical Physics.

According to recent research from the United States, "Noise transfer in granular X-ray imaging phosphor screens is not proportional to the square of the magnitude of the signal transfer when the transfer properties are considered for the entire screen thickness, unless appropriately weighted at each depth of interaction. This property, known as the Lubberts effect, has not yet been studied in columnar structured screens because of a lack of a generalized description of the depth-dependent light transport. In this paper, we investigate the signal and noise transfer...
