The purpose of this study is to examine the diagnostic potential of a scanning digital radiography (SDR) system currently used clinically as a CT localization device. The technique of contrast-detail-dose analysis is used to compare the low-contrast

A method is developed by which the imaging characteristics of a tomographic x-ray unit may be determined directly from a study of the mechanical motion of the unit. In this method we first describe the mechanical motions in terms of a vector equation

The surface topography of a patient can be determined by photogrammetry before beginning radiotherapy. The source light of the therapy unit or simulator is used to project a grid pattern onto the patient, and this is then photographed together with c

The effects of MTF, scatter radiation and display on the contrast-detail characteristics of medical film/screen radiography are examined. Theoretical relationships between these quantities are derived using signal-detection and effective aperture app

The method of contrast-detail-dose analysis offers a practical way of obtaining the information content per unit dose to the patient on an imaging system. The method is described and its assets are discussed.

Scatter radiation in diagnostic radiology is recognized as an agent that adds noise to the imaging system and increases patient dose. A prototype computed radiography (CR) system by General Electric uses a highly collimated, 1.5 mm FWHM, pulsed fan-b

A systematic study was performed to investigate the accuracy and precision attained by four methods for determining the characteristic curve of radiographic screen/film systems. The four methods include: inverse square sensitometry, KVP adjusted boot

Computed radiography (CR) is a recent development in diagnostic radiology which yields digital radiographs. Digital image enhancement of CR images in the form of smoothing the noise and enhancing the edges of anatomic boundaries has been used as a me
