Digital X-ray film quality:the initial study of the related factors

Objective:To investigate the related factor that impact the quality of digital X-ray plain film,and improve the quality.Methods:To analyze the related factor that impact the quality of digital X-ray plain film in the computed radiography(CR)and direct digital radiography(DR),such as: the exposure doses and usage of automatic exposure control(AEC); the mainframe of CR or DR and its image-taking workstations;imaging plate(IP);the function of the image processing workstations;laser printer,etc.Results:To acquire the fine quality digital X-ray plain film,it is essential to choose the fit exposed doses, use AEC reasonably, understand the characteristics of the mainframe of CR or DR and its image-taking workstations, guarantee the quality of IP,maintain the IP regularly,understand and make full use of the image processing workstations,set the parameters of the laser printer correctly.Conclusion:To know the related factor that impact the quality of digital X-ray plain film,take the full advantage of the image processing function,it could be further promoted the level of quality control of digital X-ray plain film.
