    摘要: A method is disclosed for the reduction of vibrations in a system using a stepping motor, driving parts at a constant velocity. On a test rig, the dynamic behaviour of the stepping motor in micro stepping mode is measured by a system comprising a rotation encoder. The measured data are filtered and used to compensate the unwanted speed fluctuations. In a first method, compensation is done by modification of the theoretical current-vector angles of basic micro stepping, while keeping the current-vector length constant. In a second method, first the current-vector angles are optimized, where after the current-vector lengths are optimized to correct the stepping motor for a wide range of speeds and load torques. In both methods, the stepping frequency is constant over all steps and determined by the desired angular speed of the stepping motor.

    摘要: A method for neutralizing the non-noise correlated, multiplicative image-artifacts introduced by the X-ray exposure, the detector or the digitizer prior to the determination of the Signal-to-Noise Ratio or the (Normalized) Noise Power Spectrum in CR/DR radiography systems.

    摘要: A method for generating an output image by reducing the size of an input image by determining for a pixel location (i,j) in the output image a corresponding areaxy in the input image, fetching the input image areaxy pixel values, calculating an output pixel value Dij for the pixel location (i,j) using a size reducing algorithm, inserting Dij in the output image and repeating the previous steps for each pixel location (i,j) in the output image. The value Di,j is obtained by adding to the lower resolution background representation A of the input image area pixel values with a value obtained by amplifying MED, representing the pixel value in the input image area that most deviates from said lower resolution background representation A, by means of a significance factor SF.

    摘要: An edge phantom for assessing the sharpness response of a radiation image recording and detection system wherein the edge phantom is subjected to radiation emitted by a source of radiation to generate a radiation image and wherein the radiation image, recorded and detected by the system, is evaluated. The design of the edge phantom provides that any line outside a plane perpendicular to the edge phantom's top face, connecting the focus of the source of radiation with a point on a curved or flat lateral face of the phantom used for sharpness analysis coincides with a line part of that lateral face containing that point.
