    Software windows offer a flexible method for mapping Hounsfield numbers from CT scans to display image grey levels. This technique, demonstrated with examples, has been implemented on an EMI viewing console.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Computer Science

    Background:

    • Computed Tomography (CT) scans generate images based on Hounsfield numbers.
    • Displaying CT scan data requires mapping these numbers to visible grey levels.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a flexible and general software method for mapping CT scan Hounsfield numbers to display grey levels.
    • To demonstrate the implementation of this method on a specific viewing console.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing software windows to define arbitrary functions for Hounsfield number to grey level mapping.
    • Illustrating the method with practical examples.

    Main Results:

    • The software window method provides a versatile approach for image display adjustments.
