The major system components of a FPDR system are shown in Figure 2.6 and include an x‐ray generator, an x‐ray tube, a flat‐panel digital detector, a computer, an image display monitor, and finally a digital communications system.

The flat‐panel digital detectors for FPDR fall into two categories, namely, the indirect conversion digital detector and the direct conversion digital detector. A significant difference between CR and FPDR systems is that the latter does not include a separate physical image reader but rather a digital processor is included in the design of the flat‐panel detector, so that the latent image formed on the detector is subsequently rendered visible by the built‐in digital processor. The image is then displayed on a monitor for viewing and interpretation.
