A Eu-doped CsBr-type storage phosphor screen or panel has been disclosed,
providing ratios of ultraviolet luminescence intensities of at least 10/9
after having been exposed to radiation having a wavelength in the range
from 150 to 400 nm, measured at same sites without and with pretreatment
exposure of said storage phosphor screen or panel with short ultraviolet
radiation in the range from 150 to 300 nm and having an energy of 10
mJ/mm.sup.2, as well as a method of producing a stimulable phosphor
screen or panel, characterized in that during or after at least one of
the manufacturing steps a radiation exposure treatment is given with
radiation sources emitting short ultraviolet radiation in the range from
150 to 300 nm with an energy of at least 10 mJ/mm.sup.2.
