Abstract:
1. A device for reading out X-ray information stored in a storage phosphor plate, the device comprising: a read-out device configured to irradiate the storage phosphor plate with stimulating light and to detect emission light which is stimulated in the storage phosphor plate; and a transport device configured to transport the storage phosphor plate, the transport device including at least one roller configured to rotate about a rotational axis of the at least one roller; wherein the at least one roller includes a hollow body and at least one magnet arranged inside of the hollow body; the device further includes a support located inside of the at least one roller and extending in a direction of the rotational axis of the at least one roller; the support is rotatably mounted about a longitudinal axis which extends substantially parallel to the rotational axis of the at least one roller, or which coincides with the rotational axis of the at least one roller; and the support is rotatable such that a rotational position of the support allows a first area on an outside circumference of the at least one roller, which has a magnetic field larger than a magnetic field in other areas on the outside circumference of the at least one roller, to attract a ferromagnetic body to the at least one roller when the ferromagnetic body contacts the first area on the outside circumference of the at least one roller.
