Abstract
In the industrial, medical and scientific market there is a great need for sensitive X-ray imagers for applications like non-destructive testing, medical imaging and fluorescence X-ray observation. This can be achieved with ICCD cameras equipped with a scintillator in front to convert the X-rays into visible light. In this paper two types of X-ray ICCD cameras are described which have their optimum sensitivities, respectively, in the soft and hard X-ray band. The energy band from 5 keV to 150 keV can be covered with these two cameras. Their performances will be compared with other types of X-ray imagers. A number of applications will be considered.
