Popis: | The test-plate image of an image quality test tool is processed. The processing is based on quality assurance with the well-established test device ETR-1. A program is developed to analyze the parameters such as contrast, low contrast and resolution automatically. This results in more accurate patient positioning for the On-Board Imager (OBI) system. The contrast and resolution are measured by means of Bresenham’s line algorithm. The low contrast is calculated with the help of binary masking. The modulation transfer function (MTF) is also observed for the system. The developed program imports the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) image and returns the image parameters. The program can process the ideal image or the less noisy image. The no-rotation-mode or the slight-rotation-mode of the test-plate can be analyzed. |
