CH3: Digital Radiographic Image Processing
and Manipulation
A graphic representation of a digital image is called what? -
histogram
The useful signal is determined during which part of image processing? -
Image sampling
T/F: The Nyquist Theorem states that the sampling frequency must be less than twice the frequency of
the input signal. -
False
T/F: Aliasing occurs when the sampling frequency is not greater than twice the frequency of the input
signal. -
True
In digital projection radiography, what process is used to normalize an image that has been taken worth
to great of an exposure? -
Automatic rescaling
T/F: The look-up table that is used to determine the brightness and contrast of an image is unique for
each anatomic part. -
True
Which processing technique will amplify particular known frequencies in an image while suppressing
others? -
Edge enhancement, high- pass filtering, and masking
T/F: Window width controls the brightness of the image on the display. -
False
T/F: Shuttering the digital image will reduce the exposure to the patient -
False
Which processing parameter will put together will put together multiple images into one single image
for display? -
Image stitching
Recognition of exposure data involves processing what? -
only the optimal density exposure range and it generates a graphic representation or
histogram of the optimal densities
What happens after the plate is scanned and the image location and orientation is determined? -

A value is placed on each pixel, and the histogram is generated displaying the minimum and maximum diagnostic signal. How does each histogram differ? - each histogram is different for specific anatomical regions and remain fairly constant from patient to patient Automatic rescalling allows what? - pixel display for the area of interest, regardless of the amount of exposure. What can happen if kVp or mAs is insufficient? - insufficient photons, insufficient penetration, or overpenetration results in a loss of diagnostic information that can not be manufactured by manipulating the image parameters Exposure latitude is slightly greater with digital imaging than with film imaging because of what? - the wider range of exposures recorded with digital systems Contrast enhancement parameters allows enhancement of what? - the image by controlling the steepness of the exposure gradient, density variance, and contrast amount Spatial frequency resolution is controlled by what? 3 -

  • Focal spot
  • OID
  • Computer algorithms The Nyquist Theorem is applied to digital images to ensure what? - sufficient signal sampling for maximum resolution Edge enhancement is accomplished by limiting what? - the number of pixels in a neighborhood matrix Masking can cause what? - small detail loss Low-pass filtering or Smoothing is the result of what? - pixel averaging to remove high frequency noise What does window and level parameters control what? - pixel brightness and contrast Shuttering is a process that removes or replaces what? - the background to block distracting light surrounding a digital image Image stitching is a computer program process that allows what? - multiple images to be joined when the anatomy is too large for a single exposure Proper patient demographic input is the responsibility of who? - the technologist performing the exam
