Abstract

An amorphous silicon medical imaging system designed to operate in both radiographic and fluoroscopic modes is described. Images of medical phantoms are presented for both modes of operation. MTF and DQE measurements are also presented. The effect of recursive filtering on the DQE performance of the system operating in fluoroscopic mode is discussed.
