43In a CCD X-rays hit the [blank_start]scintillation[blank_end] layer above the matrix/array and are converted to [blank_start]light[blank_end] photons. This creates a [blank_start]charge packet[blank_end] which represents the [blank_start]latent[blank_end] image.

45For a PSPP system, the barium [blank_start]fluorohalide[blank_end] phosphor layer absorbs the X-ray photons and stores them (X-rays not [blank_start]attenuated[blank_end] by patient). The image plate is then placed in a laser reader and this causes the stored X-rays to be released as light.
