A CT scanner's X-ray detector experiences extreme centrifugal forces in high-speed rotation. To function reliably in these conditions, a ceramic substrate with superior rigidity and deformation resistance is used as an interposer for the unit's photodiodes (PDs).
Kyocera can offer ceramic substrates to support either the conventional scintillator method of optical signal conversion or the photon-counting method.
