Abstract

The invention relates to a camera for producing an image of an object by use of radiation. The camera comprises a position-sensitive light sensor and light conductor elements manufactured form scintillator material. According to the invention, a part of the light conductor elements is positioned at an angle of less than 90° relative to the surface of the light sensor. In this manner, with the camera according to the invention an increased resolution can be achieved without loss of sensitivity.
