This is especially difficult when comparing a DR image from one time with a CR image from another time. The comparison is further complicated by variations in imaging systems from different vendors. The author details a method through which measurements of brightness at various key image points can be used to standardize the visual characteristics of CR and DR radiographs.Monday, 04 Jun 2007 11:50:53 GMT
