    摘要: A method for processing a radiographic image of a scanned object is provided. The method comprises acquiring radiographic image data corresponding to a scanned object and identifying one or more regions of interest in the radiographic image data corresponding to the scanned object. The method further comprises performing an image-contrast comparison of the radiographic image data corresponding to the scanned object and one or more reference radiographic images, to identify one or more defects in the radiographic image data corresponding to the scanned object.

    摘要: This disclosure describes an apparatus and a system for inspection of deepwater assets, e.g., pipes and pipelines that traverse the ocean floor. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a housing that retains a compensation fluid therein to form a fluidic environment. A digital detector resides in the fluidic environment. The digital detector can generate digital images in response to radiation that penetrate though the deepwater asset and impinges on components of the digital detector. In one embodiment, the digital detector utilizes one or more seal members to secure the components together. The seal members may be permeable and/or impermeable to the compensation fluid thereby preventing and/or permitting migration of the compensation fluid between certain components of the digital detector.

    摘要: A digital radiography imaging system for acquiring digital images of an object, and a method for transforming digital images into an absolute thickness map characterizing the object under inspection. The system includes a radiation source for directing radiation through a desired region of the object, and a radiation detector having a plurality of sensing elements for detecting radiation passing through the object. Numerical data generated from each sensing element is calibrated, for example by correcting for variations in radiation paths between the source and detector, by correcting for variations in the spatial frequency response (MTF) of the detector, by correcting for variations in the geometric profile of the object under inspection, and by correcting for material contained in and/or around the object. The calibrated data is processed in order to generate and display an absolute thickness map of the object. The calibration procedures are adapted for extracting a thickness map from both isotope sources and X-ray tube sources.
