QuestionAnswer
what is the best mechanism to control involuntary motion during an exposure shorten exposure time
which one of the following changes will improve image resolutions decrease OID
the misrepresentation of an object size or shape projected onto a radiographic recording medium is called distortions
through careful selection and control of exposure and geometric factors, it is possible to elminates all image distortions false
list the four primary controlling factros for distrotion SID OID objects IR alignments central ray placements
a decrease in SID reduces distortions false
an increase in OID reduces distortions false
distortion is reduced when the central ray (CR) is kept perpendicular to the plane of the image recetpoor true
the SID for general radiographic procedures resulting in maximum recorded resolution is 44 inches
a chest x-ray on a patients with an enlarged heart has been request which SID is recommended for this study 72 inches
every radiographic images reflects some degree of penumbra or unsharpness, even if it the smallest focal spot is used true
as the distance between the object and the image receptor is increase, magnification sis reduces false
image distortions increase as the angle divergence increase from the center of x-ray beam to the outer edge true
the greater the angle of inclinations of the object or the IR, the greater amount of distortions true
digital imaging requires that images be chemically processed false
digital images are numeric representation of the x-ray intensities that are transmitted through the patients true
digital imaging system have a narrow dynamic ranges false
digital processing involve the systematic application sof highly complex mathematical formula scalled algoithms
the range of level of image contrast in the digital image is primary controlled by digital processing
exposure latitude with digital imaging is more ______ when compared to anag imaging wide
list the six image quality factors to evaulate digital images brightness contrast spatial contrast distortion exposure indicator noise
in digital imaging the term ____ replaces density as applied in analog base imaging brightness
changes in mAs do not have primary controlling effects on digital image brightness true
brightness cannot be alter in the digital image onces it has been process false
a digital imaging systems ability to distinguish abetween similar tissues is termed contrast resolutions
radiographic contrast in the digital image is primarily affected by applications of processing algoithms
the greater the bit depth of a digital imaging system, the greater the contrast resolutions
list the term describing the two pixel size used in digital imaging acquistion pixel size display pixel size
which of the two pixel size listed above is most critical in maintaining high resolution digital images acquistiion pixel size
focal spot size has no impact on the resolutions of the digital image false
the current range of the spatial resolutions for digital rdaiographic imaging system is between the 2.5 lp/mm to 5.0 ip/mm
in addition to acquisition pixel size, spatial resolution in the digital image is controlled by display matrix
the factor that affect image distortion for the digital image are different from those that affect film-screen system false
a numeric value that is represenative of the exposure the digital image receptor receive is termed the exposure indicator
list the four factors that affects the exposure indicator in the digital images mAs kV total detector area iirrdicated objected exposed
if the recommended exposure indicator range for a well-exposed image is between 15- to 250 a vaule of 350 would indicated ______ of the images underexposure
if the recommended exposure indicator range is between 2.0-2.4 thena value of 1.2 indicates _____ of the images underexposure
a random disturbance that obscures or reduces clarity is the definition for noise
verifying the exposure indicator for each exposure is essential in producing quality digital images withe the least possible dose to the patients
when insufficents mAs is applied in the production sof a digital images it produces a _____ SNR images low
another term for image noise is mottle
changing or enhancing the electronic image to improve its diagnostic quality is post-processing
radding text to images annotations
increasing brightness along the margins of structure to increase the visibility of the edges edge enhancements
reverseing the dark and ligh pixel values of an images image reversed
enlarging all or part of an images magnifiations
the application sof specific image processing to reduce the display of noise in an images smoothings
removing background anatomy to allow visualizations of contrast media-filled structure subtractions
list the three componenets of a photostimulable storage phosphor plates (PSP_CR) systems image plate IP reader techniologist QC workstations
a PSP - based digital imaging system may be cassette based or cassette-less true
the term describing the iamge being transmitted to a digital archive for viewing and reading by the referring physician or radiolgist is image archiving
when using a PSP image plate, patients data can be linked to the image by use of an bar code reader
once the PSP image plate has had an image recorded on it it must be discarded false
the latent image on a psp image plate is read by a laser within the CR reader true
the greater the exposure to th eplate, the greater then intensity of the light emitted from the plate during the reading process true
any residual image is eraased on the PSP image plate by applying bright lights
the process of transferrring the digital image to a storage device is termed archeving
the process of transferring the digital images to a storage devices archeving
fifty percent of the IP must be exposed to produce a correct reading of the images false
the use of grids is optional with PSP because the IP is not as sensitive to scatter radiation as analog radiography false
patients dose may be lower the FPD_TFT as compared with analog radiography when using FPD_TFT for most nongrid procedure,s one rease the grid is gnerally not removed is its fragil constructions
FPD_TFT and PSP based systems does not provide the ability to view a previous image to evaluate for position errors and confirm the exposure indicator false
in additions to FPD_TFT and PSP based systems a third type of system is used to acquire radiographic images distiallly which is CCD_ based system
the size of the image receptor used is dependent primarily on the size of the body part being examined true
a PACS automatically trasported film-based images to the chemical processors after they ahve been exposed false
the electronic transmission of diagnostic imaging studies is termed teleradiology
the _________receptor is made with amorphous selenium or amorphous silicons FPD_TFT
