摘要： An imaging system for dynamically optimizing an image is provided. The imaging system includes a source of radiation, and a detector assembly configured to generate an image signal based on an incidence of radiation on a scintillator assembly. At least one or more properties of the generated image signal are determined from the incidence of radiation on the detector assembly. The one or more properties of the image signal may also be determined from one or more detector operational parameters. The imaging system also includes a detector adjustment circuitry that is configured to adjust the one or more detector operational parameters based on the generated image signal.

摘要： A method, system and apparatus for processing a radiographic image of a scanned object is disclosed. A pixel offset correction is performed in integer format on the radiographic image using saturation arithmetic to produce an image in integer format with any negative corrected values clipped to a value of zero. The resulting pixels are converted to floating point format and the converted pixels are multiplied by a gain factor. Optionally the resulting pixels are recursively averaged with previous results. The resulting pixels are converted to integer format and the converted pixel values are clamped to a maximum value using saturation arithmetic. Non-functional pixel correction is performed in integer format and the resulting pixel values are clamped to a maximum value using saturation arithmetic. An optional processing path replaces the recursive average by a linear average. The resulting pixel values are optionally filtered to enhance features of interest. The resulting pixel value is mapped in integer format to a palette index to establish an output pixel intensity having one of many intensity levels. The optional processing is controlled through the hardware interface of a real-time image controller as images are acquired.
