Abstract

Despite over a century of research and progress, scintillation detectors remain a hot topic. Emerging new technologies for producing functional nanomaterials have significantly enhanced the performance of ionizing radiation detection devices. Today there is a critical demand for sensitive and flexible scintillation panels, especially for imaging flexible and non-flat objects in industrial and medical applications. Recent advancements in material science and nanotechnology have greatly expanded the practical applications of scintillation detectors. This study outlines recent cutting-edge research breakthroughs in flexible scintillation detectors on a wide range of materials and emission mechanisms, along with their possibility for widespread use as critical tools to improve medical diagnosis and treatment. Understanding these flexible scintillators will be beneficial for future application design and development. With the rapid development of new flexible scintillators possessing enhanced features such as high light yield, superior imaging resolution, low decay time, and excellent linear response, the field of ionizing radiation detection, particularly in medical diagnosis, is poised for a promising future.
