Module 4: Image Analysis

        Help!  

Question
Answer
The radiographic density of a lumbar spine radiograph is too low. What are the possible causes of this image to have insufficient density?   show
🗑
show Motion or changes in geometric factors during image production.  
🗑
show Motion  
🗑
When blur is caused by geometric factors what is the best way to assess these factors?   show
🗑
Gross overexposure involves the use of excessive ____________.   show
🗑
Excessive Radiation is defined as:   show
🗑
show Exposure Field Recognition Error  
🗑
Exposure Field Recognition Errors can cause a _______________ error during the ___________ analysis because the ___________ ____________ weren't recognized and all of the data on the PSP plate were included in the values distribution.   show
🗑
show Grid Cutoff  
🗑
Selecting the incorrect histogram model for analysis can cause the _________ _____ _________ to display incorrect ___________ and __________.   show
🗑
Grid Cutoff will reduce the demonstrated ______________ of the image regardless of the receptor used.   show
🗑
Scatter radiation is especially hard to interpret during histogram analysis when it occurs where?   show
🗑
show 1)Scatter Radiation; 2)Unrecognized exposure field borders; 3)Overexposure  
🗑
show Reaches a Saturation Point and all pixels values are raised to their maximum level  
🗑
Most image blur is caused by ___________ _________.   show
🗑
_________ and ________ are responsible for image Size distortion because they affect the distance between the ___________ of interest and the ___________ _________.   show
🗑
Shape distortion is caused by a change in the ____________ relationship between the ________, the __________ and the __________ ___________.   show
🗑
show Image display; SID and OID  
🗑
show 1)Insufficient Signal Strength; 2)Excessive Scatter; 3)Excessive Fog  
🗑
show Insufficient Signal Strength  
🗑
show Dose Area Product (DAP); Exposure; Field  
🗑
show Exposure Field; Exposure Field  
🗑
show Histogram Analysis  
🗑
show Peak; Low-Intensity; Underexposure  
🗑
Recording multiple images on a single receptor can cause ___________ and ___________ areas as well as _____________ exposure fields in the center.   show
🗑
The current recommendation is to record ____ image per receptor to avoid __________ _________ errors.   show
🗑
Most Digital Artifacts appear ___________.   show
🗑
Cassette-Based PSP artifacts occur because each time a cassette is processed the plate reader moves the _________ _________ in and out of the cassette which can cause dust and dirt to get in the cassette.   show
🗑
show Scratched or Bent; Stain  
🗑
show Dust and Dirt  
🗑
Cassette-Less artifacts can occur because of malfunction of a single ________ or multiple rows of _________.   show
🗑
show DELs; Dust; Dirt; Bending  
🗑
show Plate Artifact  
🗑
show Processing Artifact  
🗑
A line running the entire length of the plate and parallel to the direction the plate traveled through the reader is most likely an artifact caused by a dirty __________ ________ in the plate ____________.   show
🗑
show Signal; Photomultiplier; ADC  
🗑
A Wavy appearance that runs across the entire plate is an artifact caused because the ___________ or ___________ was disturbed when the ____________ was being read or processed.   show
🗑
The Wavy appearance that runs across the entire image caused because the laser or plate was disturbed during processing is considered a ____________ artifact.   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
