Imaging 2 Final

Intro to Digital Radiography Final Review with Math

TermDefinition
Flux Gain Formula the number of light photons at the output screen/the number of light photons at the input screen
Minification Gain (Diameter of the input screen/diameter of the output screen)^2
Brightness Gain Minification Gain * Flux Gain
Calculating Object size Image size=Object size*Magnification Factor
Calculating Size Distortion SID=Magnification Factor * SOD
Pixel Size formula Pixel size=Field of View/matrix
SID Formula SID=SOD+OID
Inverse Square Law I1/I2=D2^2/D1^2
Exposure Maintenance Formula mAs1/mAs2=D1^2/D2^2
Grid conversion formula mAs1/mAs2=GCF1/GCF2

Detective Quantum Efficiency measures the efficiency of the detector to send useful signal to the image signal/noise ratio, by percentage
Modulation Transfer Function Mathematical function that measures the ability of a detector to transfer its spatial resolution characteristics to the image.
Window Level The center of the range of numbers in a digital image BRIGHTNESS
Window Width The range of numbers in a digital image CONTRAST
Bit Discrete units used by computers for processing information
Bit depth number of bits per pixel
Intensifier Flouro Step 1 INPUT SCREEN -coverts x-ray photons to light photons -coated with cesium iodide -Diameter range 13-30 cm
Intensifier Flouro Step 2 PHOTOCATHODE -the light from the input screen strikes the photocathode -made of antimony cesium -emits photoelectrons
Intensifier Flouro Step 3 ELECTROSTATIC LENSES -series of electrodes -accelerate and focus photoelectrons
Intensifier Flouro Step 4 ANODE -small ring of metal with a charge -attracts photolectrons
Intensifier Flouro Step 5 OUTPUT SCREEN -coated with ZnCdS -converts photoelectrons into light -diameter of the output screen is 1/10 the diameter of the input screen

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
