Not only the intensity of radiation beams can be used for radiography. If the beam consists of monoenergetic heavy charged particles (protons, alphas …) then their energy decreases by penetration through material as depicted in following figure. Therefore, the structure of the object can be imaged by measurement of the energy loss of individual particles.

Pixel detectors of Medipix2 type can be used for energy measurement in three ways: Using so called back-side pulse spectroscopy, using charge sharing effect and cluster analysis or by direct energy measurement in each pixel (possible with TimePix device).

"• Prepared in a very thin layer.
• Source is covered with very thin metal foil or material.
• Rapid loss of energy in a thick source.
