Purpose: To provide an extended field‐of‐view (FOV) with higher resolution images, a new SSXII imager with a two‐detector modular array was built. An acquisition, correction, and display system tiles two image modules in real‐time with geometric and brightness matching at the boundary. Methods: Two fiber‐optic tapers (FOTs) were fitted together with minimum dead‐space and embedded in liquid Sylgard 184 silicone elastomer which is allowed to cure and solidify; this 1×2 FOT array was fitted into an optical “head‐box.” The EMCCD sensors were fixed to the small‐ends of the two FOTs while a single CsI x‐ray phosphor plate was fastened onto the large‐ends. The optical head‐box was then combined with custom‐built electronics boards that control the driving clocks and sample the output. The digitized frames were transmitted to a PC through a CameraLink port accommodating a rate of 30 fps for both modules simultaneously. Customized software enabled acquisition, correction (dealing with the rotational and translational misalignments between the sensors), and display of the x‐ray images in real‐time. Other functions including acquisition control, save options, temporal filters, flat‐field correction, and mode selection for fluoroscopy, roadmapping, digital angiography (DA) and digital subtraction angiography(DSA), were also implemented. Results: The processed high‐resolution image was aligned properly along the boundary. The match up error was less than 1 pixel although there was a coupling loss of just under 7% due to chamfers at the edges of the FOTs; remachining the FOTs in future versions will reduce this loss. The two aligned images from each module exhibited balanced brightness between the sensors and flat‐field correction to eliminate fixed patterns introduced by the FOTs. Conclusions: The custom‐built SSXII detector and its acquisition, correction, and display system provides higher spatial resolution and nearly seamless images for the array in real‐time. Larger arrays are planned for future SSXII implementations. Support: NIH Grants R01‐EB008425, R01‐EB002873
