X-ray Imaging

X-ray Imaging

German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen (1845–1923) was experimenting with electrical current when he discovered that a mysterious and invisible "ray" would pass through his flesh but leave an outline of his bones on a screen coated with a metal compound. In 1895, Röntgen made the first durable record of the internal parts of a living human: an "X-ray" image (as it came to be called) of his wife’s hand. Scientists worldwide quickly began their own experiments with X-rays, and by 1900, X-ray was widely...

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy

Phase-Contrast Microscopes
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray

The most common cardiovascular diagnostic test is an X-ray. It produces images of the heart, blood vessels, and adjacent structures.
Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...

Area of Science:

Medical Imaging
Radiography
Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

Radiographic artifacts can compromise diagnostic accuracy by mimicking pathology or degrading image quality.
The transition to digital radiography (DR) has introduced new artifact types alongside persistent classic technical errors from film-screen radiography.

Purpose of the Study:

To discuss artifacts encountered in computed radiography (CR) and digital radiography (DR).
To present methods for correcting various radiographic artifacts.

Main Methods:

Review and categorization of artifacts specific to CR and DR technologies.
Discussion of common technical errors that persist across film-screen and digital radiography.
Presentation of artifact correction strategies.

Main Results:

Digital radiography introduces unique artifacts, but traditional film-screen radiography errors remain relevant.
Specific examples of artifacts from CR, DR, and improper image processing are detailed.
Effective correction methods are provided for identified artifacts.

Conclusions:

Understanding and identifying radiographic artifacts is crucial for accurate image interpretation.
Implementation of presented correction techniques can improve diagnostic image quality in digital radiography.
This work provides a valuable resource for radiologists and radiologic technologists managing image artifacts.
