Abstract
A luminescent storage screen, in which a latent x-ray image is stored, is read-out using stimulating radiation at a first wavelength, which causes light at a second wavelength to be emitted by the screen. The stimulable phosphor is transparent in the range of the two wavelengths. The stimulable phosphor is a doped alkali halide, such as a thallium-doped rubidium-bromide.
