Abstract:
1. A radiation imaging device comprising: a radiation detector for detecting radiation transmitted through an object to be examined, said radiation detector having a scintillator and a detection panel, said scintillator converting said radiation incident upon an incident surface into visible light, said detection panel having a detection surface having a two-dimensional array of pixels each for converting said visible light emitted from said scintillator into an electric signal, said detection surface being opposed to said incident surface of said scintillator; a housing having a top plate in an irradiation surface irradiated with said radiation, said housing contains said radiation detector in such a position that said detection panel is faced to said top plate; and an anisotropic heat transfer plate disposed between said top plate and said detection panel in said housing so as to make tightly contact with both said top plate and said detection panel, for transferring heat in a specific first direction.
