摘要:
An x-ray diagnostics installation for mammography exposures has a radiation detector for making a radiation measurement used to calculate the average parenchyma dose. The radiation detector is disposed on the support table next to the measurement field in which the mammary gland is disposed, and supplies a signal to a computer corresponding to the measured radiation dose at the detector location. The computer is programmed with the dependency of the average parenchyma dose, with respect to the radiation dose at the location of the radiation detector, and thus the computer generates a value corresponding to the average parenchyma dose, obtained by direct measurement rather than by calculation.

An X-ray diagnostic installation includes an X-ray source and a radiation receiver and a digital imaging processing system, the digital imaging processing system including a computer which evaluates an X-ray image of a phantom by identifying visible details in the X-ray image of the phantom. The computer employs these identified visible details to automatically construct a contrast-detail graph of the phantom. The computer thus undertakes an automatic judgment of the imaging quality, without the need for a trained observer.
摘要:
A method is for the compensation of image disturbances in the course of a radiation image recording caused by a defocusing of an antiscatter grid, arranged in the beam path between a beam source and a digital radiation image receiver and focused with respect to a specific distance from the focus of the beam source. Such image disturbances are caused by a defocusing-dictated attenuation of the primary radiation incident on the radiation image receiver. A solid-state image detector includes radiation-sensitive pixels arranged in matrix form and a device for pixelwise amplification of the radiation-dependent signals. In the method, at least some of the signals supplied in pixelwise fashion are amplified by an amplifying device in a manner dependent on the actual distance of the antiscatter grid from the focus.
