Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has become a well-established breast imaging
technique, whose performance has been investigated in many clinical studies, including a …

The aim of this work was to propose system sharpness parameters for digital breast
tomosynthesis (DBT) systems that include the influence of focus size and focus motion for …

Fundamental imaging performance in terms of Modulation Transfer Function (MTF), Noise
Power Spectrum (NPS) and Detective Quantum Efficiency (DQE) was investigated for a high …

The purpose of this study was to investigate physical characteristics of two full field digital
mammography (FFDM) systems (GE Senographe Essential and DS). Both are indirect …

This paper describes a digital radiography (DR) quality control protocol for DR detectors
from the forthcoming report from the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM) …

Digital x-ray detectors are now the detector of choice in many X-ray examinations. They
have been accepted into clinical practice over the past decade but there are still ongoing …

This paper presents detective quantum efficiency (DQE) data measured for a range of x-ray
beam qualities for two full-field digital mammography (FFDM) systems: a caesium iodide …

The influence of two methods of an automatic exposure control (AEC) setup using a simple
measure of detectability is examined as a function of x-ray beam quality for a computed …

Abstract Radiation detection in Medical Imaging is mostly based on the use of luminescent
materials (scintillators and phosphors) coupled to optical sensors. Materials are employed in …

Background: Mammographic digital imaging is based on X-ray sensors with solid image
quality characteristics. These primarily include (a) a response curve that yields high contrast …
