Abstract
Provided is a scintillator panel realizing reduced image unevenness and the like by virtue of having a cushioning layer between a support and a phosphor. The cushioning layer absorbs irregularities on the phosphor layer when the scintillator panel is compression bonded to a planar light-receiving element and thereby allows the phosphor layer to be in contact with the planar light-receiving element without any gaps in the interface. The scintillator panel includes, in the order named, a support, a cushioning layer disposed on a surface of the support, and a phosphor layer deposited on the surface of the cushioning layer, the cushioning layer having a specific thickness, the phosphor layer being configured to be placed into uniform contact with a surface of a planar light-receiving element when the phosphor layer is pressed against the planar light-receiving element by the application of a pressure from the support side.
