DEFINITION

Classification: 250/581

Using a stimulable phosphor:

(under subclass 580) Subject matter in which the radiation sensitive means is a stimulable phosphor.

(1) Note. The radiation sensitive means may be described as a stimulable phosphor sheet, a photostimulable substrate, a storage plate, or an imaging plate.

(2) Note. A stimulable phosphor absorbs radiation

wavelength, is stimulated by radiation of a longer wavelength, and emits radiation of an intermediate wavelength.
