X-ray cameras utilize x-ray imaging to support a variety of imaging and spectroscopy applications including clinical diagnostics, environmental testing, chemical analysis, forensics, food testing, materials research, microscopy, and pharmaceutical science. An X-ray camera is distinguished by various imaging detectors that generate the optical images. One factor to consider when purchasing an X-ray camera is the level of X-ray radiation you are imaging. Due to the invasive nature of X-rays on biological systems, low dose x-ray cameras are preferred and utilize CCD or CMOS image detectors. CCD detectors directly absorb X-rays and have very sensitive detection capabilities. CMOS image detectors are capable of generating smaller image details at higher resolutions. Additional key considerations for X-ray cameras are sensitivity, speed, vacuum compatibility, and imaging resolution.
