Question
Answer
The two principal characteristics of a medical image are   Spatial resolution and contrast resolution  
🗑
Spatial frequency is used to describe the quality of spatial resolution in terms of   line pairs  
🗑
in digital imaging, spatial resolution is ultimately limited by   pixel size  
🗑
As spatial frequency increases the object size _ and the spatial resolution _   decreases, increases  
🗑
A _ test tool is used to acquire data for an MTF curve   Bar pattern  
🗑
The use of two screens in imaging results in higher   MTF  
🗑
The number of gray shades that an imaging system can reproduce is called its   dynamic range  
🗑
Screen film radiography has a dynamic range of   1,000  
🗑
The bit capacity of each pixel identifies the _ of a digital imaging system   dynamic range  
🗑
The _ digital imaging system uses the highest dynamic range.   mammography  
🗑
The portion of useful image forming x-rays is referred to as the   signal  
🗑
As mAs is increased the signal to noise ratio is   increased  
🗑
Image detail is also called   spatial resolution  
🗑
Of all radiography imaging systems, _ has the best contrast resolution   computed tomography  
🗑
With digital imaging, patient dose can be reduced by using higher _ techniques   KVP  
🗑
DQE is _   detective quantum efficiency  
🗑
If an image receptor has a high probability of interacting with the x-ray beam, then it has a high _   DQE  
🗑
The use of an image receptor with _ DQE can result in _ patient doses   High, lower low, and higher  
🗑
The science of _ is the study of the response of the human eye to light   Photometry  
🗑
What is the basic photometric unit?   Lumen  
🗑
The decreasing luminous intensity with increasing distance from the source of light follows_   the inverse square law  
🗑
T/F A digital display device with higher megapixels has a better spatial resolution   True  
🗑
Almost all medical flat panel digital display devices are _   Monochrome liquid crystal displays  
🗑
Medical flat panel display devices are identified by the _   # of pixels  
🗑
The ambient light a digital image workstation should be _   near darkness  
🗑
Flat-fielding is accomplished through automatic calibration images are called _ and   offset images, and gain images  
🗑
Re-registering an image to correct for patient motion is done with   pixel shift  
🗑
A computation of the mean pixel value within a region-of-interest is performed for _   quantitative radiology  
🗑
Post-processing includes all of the following except _   signal interpolation  
🗑
_ is corrected by the application of an offset voltage   Image lag  
🗑
Within PACS network the secretarial workstation and the viewing workstation would be both called   clients  
🗑
Text data and email are generated at a _ workstation in PACS.   RIS  
🗑
Image file size is determined by _ size and gray scale   matrix  
🗑
What is the file size of an image with 1026 x 1026 matrix and 2.5 byte gray scale   2.6 mb  
🗑
What is the spatial frequency of a digital system that can resolve 100um   10 lp/mm  
🗑
If a digital system has a spatial resolution of 4 lp/mm, it can resolve an object as small as _ mm   4  
🗑
If a digital radiography imaging system has a spatial resolution of 10 lp/mm, what is the pixel size of that system?   0.05 mm  
🗑
If there were such thing as a perfect imaging system, the MTF would be equal to _   1  
🗑
