Effects of Changing the Source-to-image Receptor Distance Parameter of Scattered X-ray Correction after Exposure on Image Quality in Portable Chest Radiography
Abstract:Purpose: To validate the effects of changing the source-to-image receptor distance (SID) parameter of scattered X-ray correction after exposure on the image quality in portable chest radiography. Methods: The actual SID and tube current-time product (mAs) were varied such that the direct X-ray dose to a flat panel detector (FPD) remained constant. We created two groups as follows: Group A (with the SID parameter unchanged) and Group B (with the SID parameter changed to the actual SID after a phantom chest expo… Show more
