Patent Number: 
Section: abstract

An X-RAY CONVERTER having a light-proof housing with an X-ray-transparent wall behind which there are fastened an X-ray-to-optical converter, a filter of residual X-radiation, an objective lenses unit, and a photodetector containing at least two optoelectronic converters with partly overlapping fields of view and separated electrical outputs for connection to a system for processing of fragmentary video signals and generating an integral output video signal. For improving the efficiency of suppression of internal interferences in optical channels and the operating reliability, within the housing, parallel to the X-ray-to-optical converter, there is rigidly fastened an additional light- and X-ray-opaque partition with through-holes which in the number and placement correspond to objective lenses and optoelectronic converters and are blocked by washers of the filter of residual X-radiation, and ahead of the washers there are installed blinds, length A of each of which and distance D from the front surface of the X-ray-to-optical converter to the plane of front end faces of objective lenses are related by the ratio A/D=(0.50 . . . 0.95).
