Abstract: CMOS image sensors are today dominating the field of commercial and consumer photography, and are rapidly making inroads into medical and industrial x-ray imaging. For non-destructive radiographic testing, CMOS technology offers high spatial resolution, fast frame rates and superb image quality, allowing radiographers in fields ranging from Oil & Gas to Aerospace to replace their aging stockpiles of film with convenient, state-of-the-art digital imagery.This talk will discuss some of the fundamentals of large-area CMOS x-ray imagers, and highlight specific application examples where CMOS technology has been used to solve real-world NDT problems.
