Abstract

Models have been developed for the DQE of a screen-film system that, although based on a number of simplifying assumptions, include most of the significant parameters. At the same time an increasing number of experimental measurements are available for the complete DQE characteristics as a function of exposure and spatial frequency for practical screen-film systems. A systematic set of DQE measurements is presented here, which we examine from the viewpoint of current models. This reveals both areas of agreement and aspects that require further theory and experimentation.
