Radiation image storage panel
In a radiation image storage panel composed of a support, a sealing frame provided on a surface of the support in its peripheral area, a phosphor layer formed inside the sealing frame, and a moisture-proof protective film provided on the phosphor layer and sealing frame, a reinforcement means is fixed onto a upper surface of the moisture-proof protective film at least in the area where the protective film covers the sealing frame.
1 . A radiation image storage panel comprising a support, a sealing frame provided on a surface of the support in a peripheral area thereof, a phosphor layer formed inside the sealing frame, and a moisture-proof protective film provided on the phosphor layer and sealing frame, wherein a reinforcement means is fixed onto a upper surface of the moisture-proof protective film at least in the area where the protective film covers the sealing frame.
2 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 1 , wherein a gap is formed between the sealing frame and the phosphor layer, and the reinforcement means is fixed onto the upper surface of the moisture-proof protective film in the area where the protective film covers both the sealing frame and the gap.
3 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement means is made of material which is more rigid than material of the moisture-proof protective film.
4 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement means is made of material equivalent to material of the sealing frame.
5 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 1 , wherein the reinforcement means is made of metal.
6 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 1 , wherein the phosphor layer is formed by vapor deposition.
7 . A radiation image storage panel comprising a support, a phosphor layer provided thereon and in an area other than a peripheral area of the support, and a moisture-proof protective film covering the phosphor layer whose hem is fixed via an adhesive layer onto the support in the peripheral area; wherein a reinforcement means is fixed onto a upper surface of the moisture-proof protective film at least in the area where the protective film covers the peripheral area.
8 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 7 , wherein the reinforcement means is made of material which is more rigid than material of the moisture-proof protective film.
9 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 7 , wherein the reinforcement means is made of material equivalent to material of the support.
10 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 7 , wherein the reinforcement means is made of metal.
11 . The radiation image storage panel of claim 7 , wherein the phosphor layer is formed by vapor deposition.
