Question
Answer
Multiple numeric values divided into an array of small elements capable of being processed is the definition of _____ images.   Digital  
🗑
The continuous and varying levels of brightness and colors describe _____ images.   Analog  
🗑
Critical characteristics of a digital image include all of the following except a. dose efficiency of the receptor. c. noise efficiency. b. contrast resolution. d. sample resolution.   sample resolution.  
🗑
Changing the matrix and the FOV will not change the size of the pixel. T or F   False  
🗑
Each square in a matrix is called a   picture element  
🗑
The number of bits per pixel is known as bit   Depth  
🗑
If a pixel has a bit depth of 2 to the 9th, the number of gray tones that pixel can produce is   512  
🗑
The size of the pixel is determined by the   matrix  
🗑
Exposure index refers to the amount of exposure to the patient. T or F   False  
🗑
The measurement for radiation that was incident on the image receptor for a particular exposure is known as   Kind  
🗑
Deviation index is the difference between _____ and _____ expressed in logarithmic fashion.   actual exposure (KIND); target exposure (KTGT)  
🗑
Factors that can adversely affect the pixel values expressed in the deviation index include all of the following except   failure of the system to recognize the exposure indicator.  
🗑
How dark or light a digital image appears on a display monitor is known as   brightness  
🗑
The ability of a digital system to display subtle changes in shades of gray is called   contrast resolution.  
🗑
The ability of an imaging system to demonstrate small details of an object is known as   spatial resolution  
🗑
"The sum of the components in a recording system cannot be greater than the system as a whole" is a definition of   modulation transfer function (MTF).  
🗑
A perfect image processing system would have an MTF of   100%  
🗑
The more light spread, the ______ the MTF.   Lower  
🗑
The range of exposure values the image detector is able to produce is known as   latitude  
🗑
The efficiency of a system to convert x-ray input signal into a useful output image is known as   detective quantum efficiency.  
🗑
Air kerma is the measurement of radiation energy absorbed in a unit of air. T or F   True  
🗑
The reflection of ambient light can be problematic with monochromatic monitors. T or F   True  
🗑
MTF is a way to quantify the contribution of each system component and the component's overall efficiency. T or F   False  
🗑
It is possible to achieve an MTF of 100%. T or F   False  
🗑
A system's ability to respond to varying levels of exposure, resulting in more detail, is referred to as   Dynamic range  
🗑
