    摘要: An automatic exposure control method for an image produced on a solid-state image sensing device in which intensity of radiation light irradiated to an object to be examined from a radiation source is feedback controlled. The solid-state image sensing device comprises a picture element producing part where electric charges generated by way of photo-electric conversion when receiving exposure, and a dark current measuring part where a dark current is generated and stored without receiving exposure. The image is produced while performing radiography in a manner that the intensity of radiation light is feedback controlled so as to keep, within a predetermined density range, the amount value which is defined by removing the charge signals stored on a specified pixel element or a specified pixel element column in the dark current measuring part of the image sensing device from the charge signals stored on a specified pixel element or a specified pixel element column in the picture element producing part of the image sensing device.

    摘要: In a method for processing a digital X-ray image data obtained by panoramic or cephalo-metric radiography, Fourier transforms are computed in a two-dimensional frequency space on the digital X-ray image data, and data of the Fourier transforms are multiplied by values of a mask having different frequency characteristics in two coordinate directions in the two-dimensional frequency space, the values being smaller than one around an origin in the frequency space. Then, inverse Fourier transforms are computed on the data of the Fourier transforms after the multiplication. A resultant image data in real space is provided for diagnosis.
