A phosphor screen comprises an inorganic phosphor capable of absorbing X-rays
and
emitting electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength greater than 300 nm. The
phosphor is disposed on a support that has a reflective substrate comprising a
continuous polyester first phase and a second phase dispersed within the continuous
polyester first phase. The second phase contains microvoids that in turn contain
barium sulfate particles. This support provides improved reflectivity particularly
at shorter wavelengths.
