1. A digital radiographic detector comprising:

  • a radiation sensing element comprising a particulate material dispersed within a binder composition, wherein the binder composition comprises a pressure-sensitive adhesive, wherein the particulate material, upon receiving radiation of a first energy level, is excitable to emit radiation of a second energy level, either spontaneously or in response to a stimulating energy of a third energy level; and

    an array of photosensors wherein each photosensor in the array is energizable to provide an output signal indicative of the level of emitted radiation of the second energy level that is received,wherein the radiation sensing element bonds directly to, and in optical contact with, either the array of photosensors or an array of optical fibers that guide light to the array of photosensors.
