Abstract

See full text

A method and device for reading out X-ray image information stored in a storage phosphor layer with a stimulating light beam includes deflecting the stimulating light beam to alternately move it in a first direction and in a second direction, opposite to the first direction, across the storage phosphor layer. During the movements of the stimulating light beam in the first direction and the second direction, detection emission light emitted by the storage phosphor layer and converting them into corresponding first and second detector signals, respectively. The first and second detector signals are compared with each other. The first and/or second detector signals, which were obtained during the movements of the stimulating light beam across the storage phosphor layer in the first direction and second direction, respectively, are corrected dependent on the results of the comparison.
