The coordinated response of cone cells to visible light in the wavelength range of 400-780 nm lets us see the colorful world. In the wavelength range of invisible X-ray (1 pm\u201410 nm), X-ray detectors perform the same function as &#8220;eyes.&#8221; However, X-ray detectors generally apply charge-integration-mode detection, which cannot distinguish wavelength and energy. Therefore, digital radiography and CT examinations can only obtain grayscale imaging.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2022-05-vertical-matrix-x-ray-detector-multi-energy.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">A vertical matrix X-ray detector for multi-energy discrimination<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are three types of cone cells in the retina that are called L-cones (sensitive to red light), M-cones (sensitive to green light), and S-cones (sensitive to blue light).
