Abstract: Radiation imaging apparatus includes a support structure for a number of modules which each in their turn support a number of imaging device tiles. An imaging device on each tile provides an array of radiation detector cells. With the modular construction, the apparatus can provide a large imaging array from a large number of individual tiles. The support structure may be located in or form part of an imaging cassette. The modules provide tile mounting locations in one or more rows for the imaging device tiles, whereby the tiles may be accurately mounted with respect the module and to each other prior to being mounted on the support structure. The tiles are mounted on the modules and the modules are mounted within the cassette in a removable manner to facilitate the replacement of faulty tiles when required and/or the replacement of tiles having different resolutions and/or specifications for different imaging applications. Various arrangements for electronically clustering tiles are provided.
