Abstract:
Projection properties of a digital fluorographic system for chest examinations are examined using varying test phantoms. A maximal geometric distortion of +14% between the centre and the periphery of the image intensifier and a maximal spatial resolution of 2.6 LP/mm is found. Contrast detail diagrams are used to show the combination of spatial and contrast resolution of the system. Compared with diagrams for conventional radiographic systems there is a significant loss of resolution.
