Material Layer of small photo-stimulable particles (that exhibit the phe-
nomenom of phosphorescence) uniformly coated on a support
plastic material. Shielded with a protective top coat layer on the
sensitive surface and encapsulated with lacquer around the edg-
es. Imaging plates do not not include phosphorous / phosphorus
(P).
Use
The typical service life for an imaging plate is several hundreds of
cycles provided that the imaging plate is handled with care and
according to the supplied instructions. The use of genuine hy-
giene accessories (protective covers and hygiene bags) will ex-
tend the service life of the imaging plates.
Disposal Imaging plates are industrial waste and must be disposed of in
accordance with local and national regulations concerning the
disposal of such material. Never use damaged imaging plates.
