Patent attributes
A detector array such as for use in a radiation imaging modality is provided. The detector array includes a first pixel (302a) having a first scintillator (402). The first scintillator has a first detection surface (408) and a first light emission surface (412). The first detection surface extends along a first detection surface plane and the first light emission surface extends along a first light emission surface plane. The detector array includes a second pixel (302b) having a second scintillator (420). The second scintillator has a second detection surface (426) and a second light emission surface (430). The second detection surface extends along a second detection surface plane and the second light emission surface extends along a second light emission surface plane. At least one of the first detection surface plane is not coplanar with the second detection surface plane or the first light emission surface plane is not coplanar with the second light emission surface plane.
