Abstract
A method for triggering image capture by a group of simultaneously X-ray exposed multiple wirelessly interlinked self-triggering direct radiography (DR) detector assemblies includes the steps of performing an initiation step to identify the group of participating DR detector assemblies prior to X-ray exposure, detecting the X-ray exposure by a first participating DR detector assembly, the first participating DR detector assembly performing a trigger step to signal all participating DR detector assemblies to start image capture.
