Abstract:
In a scintillator panel, a phosphor includes plural columnar crystals located on a columnar crystal growth starting surface of a scintillator layer, roots of the plural columnar crystals exist independently from each other, and a thickness region from the columnar crystal growth starting surface up to a height of 5 μm has a radiation absorptivity x of from 5.4 to 8.6%. The scintillator panel can provide radiation images having higher sharpness.
