Visual grading characteristics (VGC) analysis is a non-parametric rank-invariant method for
analysis of visual grading data. In VGC analysis, image quality ratings for two different …

Background Iterative scatter correction (ISC) is a new technique applicable to plain
radiography; comparable to iterative reconstruction for computed tomography, it promises …

Purpose The aim of our study was to compare the image quality assessments of vascular
anatomy between interventional radiographers and interventional radiologists using digital …

Purpose We have developed a clinically viable method for measurement of direct, patient‐
specific intravertebral displacements using a novel digital tomosynthesis based digital …

Objectives Thoracic spine radiography becomes more difficult with age. Tomosynthesis is a
low-dose tomographic extension of radiography which may facilitate thoracic spine …

Background Iterative reconstruction is well established for CT. Plain radiography also takes
advantage of iterative algorithms to reduce scatter radiation and improve image quality. First …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to examine the reproducibility of vertical
subluxation (VS) parameters using X-ray, computed tomography (CT), and tomosynthesis …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of a recently developed method of
retrospectively estimating the patient dose–area product (DAP) of a chest tomosynthesis …

The purposes of the present work were to calculate the average effective dose to patients
from lateral tomosynthesis examinations of the thoracic spine, compare the results with the …

Introduction: Digital tomosynthesis (DTS) is a relatively new imaging modality in thoracic
imaging. The technique is based on the equipment of conventional radiography, upgraded …
