Not being that familiar with scintillators, one must rely on the speaker to give you the lay of the land. The speaker did not claim it was new, nor did he talk about prior art. So, maybe the particular structure was new, or maybe not. <br /><br />Anyway, if you want to help educate the community about prior art, it would be better if you gave specific citations or products we could check out rather than vague statements.<br /><br />On the other hand, using the right words makes a Google search productive, so thanks for "structured scintillator".

This is not fair for the real inventors of such concept. Of course the nice things don't need to be new but need to be perfect and also need to give new inspiration for others. You are an opinion leader, so that is why this is particularly important.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-89071925861537190672012-03-25T12:15:31.561+02:002012-03-25T12:15:31.561+02:00scint-x offers integratable modulesscint-x offers integratable modulesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-75564924770325558692012-03-24T20:44:20.829+02:002012-03-24T20:44:20.829+02:00Not everything that I consider as being "very...Not everything that I consider as being "very nice" needs to be new ;-)Albert Theuwissennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-60471650198218769442012-03-24T20:15:28.973+02:002012-03-24T20:15:28.973+02:00structured scintillator was introduced long time a...structured scintillator was introduced long time ago.
