A

Image Inversion

23
Q

Technique that can remove superimposed structures so that the anatomic area of interest becomes more visible.

A

Digital Subtraction

24
Q

When anatomy or the area of interest is too large to fit on one cassette, multiple images can be “stitched” together using specialized software programs.

A

Image Stitching

25
Q

One of the most commonly used three-dimensional (3D) rendering techniques

A

Multiplanar Reconstruction (MPR

26
Q

Used to visualize vessels (MIP) and air-filled structures (MinIp).

A

•Maximum Intensity Projection and Minimum Intensity Projection (MIP and MinIp)

27
Q

Similar to MIP but allows the user to assign colors based on the intensity of the tissue so that bone, contrast agent, and organs can be seen in different colors.

A

Volume Rendering Technique (VRT

28
Q

●Using a threshold of pixel intensity values, everything below the threshold will be removed, and everything above will be assigned a color and shown as a 3D object.

A

Shaded Surface Display (SSD)
