What is used to scan the CR IP in the reader
Helium-neon laser
During IP scanning in the reader, energy is relased in the form of
Light
What converts an electronic (analog) signal into a digital signal
ADC
Purpose of a scintillator and what is it made of
Absorbs photons and gives off light
cesium iodide
Which IR phosphor provides best resolution
Why
Needle
Less light divergence
What is a DEL
Pixel in a matrix basically
Define artifact
anything on a film that is unwanted opening cassette in light dust heat chemicals scratches emulsion
Define duplitized film. What is the advantage
emulsion on both sides of film
decreased mas
What type of phosophors are contained in film emulsion
Silver bromide
silver iodide
What type of EM energies is film sensitive to
visible light
xray
radio waves/microwaves
not sensitive
Define “latent” and “manifest”
latent cannot see, image before processing
Manifest is visible one we can see
