Abstract

Computed radiography is used for a wide range of projection radiography examinations. To produce useful diagnostic images it is necessary to apply an appropriate tone scale to the raw CR data. This paper presents a new automated tone scaling method for computed radiography and presents the results of a clinical study of the algorithm encompassing a wide range of clinical examinations.
