Zinc-cadmium sulfide intensifiers have a resolving power of what range?

Zinc-cadmium sulfide scintillators are known for their use in x-ray and fluoroscopic imaging due to their effectiveness in converting x-ray photons into visible light. The resolving power of a scintillator is a measure of its ability to accurately distinguish between closely spaced structures, and it is often expressed in line pairs per millimeter (lp/mm).

The correct range for the resolving power of zinc-cadmium sulfide intensifiers is indeed one to two line pairs per millimeter. This low resolving power is characteristic of these particular intensifiers, as they are designed primarily for high sensitivity to x-rays rather than high resolution. Thus, while they effectively enhance the visibility of the detected signal, their ability to resolve fine detail is limited compared to other, more advanced scintillation materials.
