    4343W/4336W-G5/2530W-G5 X-ray Detectors 14.0 Maintenance In principle, the X-ray detector assembly is maintenance-free, however; it is important that all calibrations are regularly performed and used for image processing. Although the a-Si X-ray detectors are resistant to X-rays they can exhibit degradation over time when exposed to high X-ray dose environments.
