Preferred Label : spatially resolving detector;
Detailed label : spatially resolving detector of radiation;
IUPAC definition : A detector for the measurement of the spatial distribution of the radiation. Spatially
resolving detectors can be divided into two groups: ol li the photosensitive area
consists of a matrix of discrete photosensitive elements, the pixels (picture elements)
forming an array with the facility to separately read out the information, simultaneously
or sequentially. /li li the photosensitive area consists of a single photosensitive
element that must be scanned (e.g. image dissection tube.) /li /ol ;
