1. A solid state radiation detection panel adapted to receive radiation incident on a first surface of said solid state radiation detection panel, having a plurality of modules having a plurality of edges with at some of said plurality of edges positioned immediately adjacent each other, each of said plurality of modules comprising:

  • an array of photosensitive detectors, each representing a pixel, being arranged on a first surface of said module in a plurality of rows and columns coveting substantially said first surface;

    said photosensitive detectors located along an edge of said module being designated edge photosensitive detectors and said photosensitive detectors located interior of said module being designated inside photosensitive detectors;

    each of said photosensitive detectors having a radiation sensitive area and non-radiation sensitive circuitry associated with one of said photosensitive detectors;

    each of said edge photosensitive detectors having said radiation sensitive area located along said first surface nearer said edge of said module than said non-radiation sensitive circuitry.
