A detector unit for two-dimensional detection of incoming radiation from an X-ray source, primarily for use in X-ray radiography. The unit includes a solid material structure (2) having a plurality of passages (6) extending therein and comprising surface portions (7) comprising a conversion medium. The surface portions of the passages are inclined, so that the incoming radiation impinges at an acute angle onto the surface portions. In this way, the efficiency of the detector and the positional resolution will be improved.

L'invention concerne une unité de détection destinée à la détection bi-dimensionnelle d'un rayonnement incident provenant d'une source de rayons X, et utilisée principalement dans la radiographie par rayons X. Cette unité comprend une structure (2) de matériau solide pourvue d'une pluralité de passages (6) se prolongeant à l'intérieur de ladite structure et comprenant des parties (7) de surface offrant un milieu de conversion. Les parties de surface des passages sont inclinées, de manière que le rayonnement incident frappe les parties de surface avec un angle d'incidence aigu. L'efficacité du détecteur et la résolution de position seront ainsi améliorées.
