Description

This course presents information geared towards the analysis of actual radiographic images including the properties
associated with density, contrast, film sensitometry, recorded detail and distortion. Students learn techniques for
overcoming problems in evaluating images and come to appreciate the importance of minimum standards for imaging
and the factors that can enhance or diminish image quality. The student will also emerge from the course with a solid
understanding of digital radiographic, fluoroscopic and tomographic requirements and design. A comparison of analog
to computed/digital radiographic systems will be compared along with factors that govern radiographic technique
selection.
