Chapter 4: RAD EXPO. Flashcards
With_imaging, automatic_provides images that have similar brightness (density) over an exposure range_than_?
digital, rescaling, greater, 50X
What is likely to occur if there is substantial extraneous exposure?
histogram analysis error
When the photon intensity reaching the receptor is lower than that required to produce an optimal image.
underexposure
Causes the system to rescale the image as if the plate is actually underexposed?
low-intensity exposure
of causes grid cutoff & decreased contrast
flattening of luminance
Processing algorithm has more of an effect on image_ than_?
contrast, kVp
Be caused of_sensitivity to scatter radiation, the kVp should not exceed_ for any nongrid radiography, including_?
Increased, 80, chest
Acquiring one image on the_plate available avoids_error
smallest, recognition
Collimation limits_?
irradiated volume and reduces undercutting
occurs when a large number of pixels will be at the_digital value() so that there is no_difference in the very high_areas, resulting in loss of anatomical structures in that region.
Saturation,maximum ,(black),signal, exposure
Receptor’s contribution to recorded detail?
Spatial resolution
PSP plates are more_to fogging than conventional film-screen systems?
susceptible
What would substantial(_) overexposure of a body part enervate in proportion to the overexposure?
> 2x, additional scatter
Expressed as pixels/mm, or pixel density?
sampling
In order to visualize the anatomical structures of interest, some initial_ must occur during imaging data extraction.
