New investigation results, 'Scan equalization digital radiography (SEDR) implemented with an amorphous selenium flat-panel detector: initial experience,' are detailed in a study published in Physics In Medicine and Biology. "It is well recognized in projection radiography that low-contrast detectability suffers in heavily attenuating regions due to excessively low x-ray fluence to the image receptor and higher noise levels. Exposure equalization can improve image quality by increasing the x-ray exposure to heavily attenuating regions, resulting in a more uniform distribution of exposure to the detector," scientists in the United States report.

"Image quality is...
