Abstract
We have developed a TDC+Transputer-based acquisition system to study t he X-ray imaging capabilities of a silicon mustrip detector with 100 a nd 200 mum read-out pitch. This system allows real-time image acquisit ion and display. We present images obtained with an X-ray mammography tube using sub-millimeter high contrast test objects on a 1616 channe ls prototype.
