Series: Practical Evaluation of Clinical Image Quality (2): Image Quality Measurements for Digital Radiography
1Diagnostic Imaging Center, Kurume University Hospital.
Abstract:
In recent years, the manuals and data analysis tools to evaluate the basic imaging properties of medical imaging systems, such as digital radiography system, CT, and MRI, are easily available. For the image quality evaluation of digital radiography systems, special measurement system, such as a microdensitometer, required for the analysis of analog radiography system, is not needed. This enabled anyone to perform the evaluation of digital radiography system.On the other hand, to make accurate measurements, obtaining appropriate image data is a must. To enable this, appropriate setting of the hardware and the software is also required. In addition, we are asked to acquire sufficient knowledge to make highly reproducible measurements.

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...
Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography
Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
