Q

Goals of DICOM GSDF

Which on is not achieved

A
  1. Provide applications with a predictable transformation of digital pixel values
    (called “presentation values,” abbreviated as “P-values”) to luminance
  2. similar display of contrast on display monitors and
    printed media
  3. provide perceptual linearization, that is, equal differences in the
    pixel values received by the display system should be perceived as equal by the
    human visual system (NOT ACHIEVED)

17
Q

Advantage of Medical-grade monitors

A
  1. Much higher maximal luminance
  2. More uniform luminance
  3. Smaller pixels, providing higher spatial resolution
  4. Wider viewing angles, due to different LCD technology
  5. More than 8 bits for digital driving levels (grayscale monitors) or more than 8 bits
    each for the digital driving levels for red, green, and blue (color monitors), to
    display subtle contrast differences
  6. Automatic luminance stabilization circuits to compensate for changing backlight
    intensity
  7. Hardware and software for implementing the DICOM GSDF
  8. Ability to monitor display monitor luminance and GSDF calibration over a network
18
Q

multiformat laser cameras
most ___ camera emit infrared light
- ypically contains a microprocessor; an image memory; an analog-todigital converter; a laser with a modulator to vary the intensity of the beam; a rotating
polygonal mirror to scan the laser beam across the film; and a film-transport mechanism
to move the film in a linear fashion so the scanning covers the entire film. Each sweep of
the laser beam across the film records a single row of pixel values
