Description

A charged-particle imaging video monitor system was constructed for video imaging of the distributions of alpha-emitting and low-energy beta-emitting nuclides. The imaging video monitor system consists of a detector head, a silicon intensifier target (SIT) camera, a video frame memory, and a personal computer. The system can display not only the scintillation image due to radiation on the video monitor, but also the integrated video image becoming gradually clearer on another video monitor. The integrated image is transferred to a personal computer for image processing. The distortion of the image is about 5%, and the spatial resolution is about 2 line pairs (lp) mm-1
