National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Performance of Image Intensifiers in Radiographic Systems.

DE2001763302

Publication Date	2000
Personal Author	Baker, S.; King, N.
Page Count	10
Abstract	Electronic CCD cameras equipped with image intensifiers are increasingly being used for radiographic applications. These systems may be used to replace film recording for static imaging, or at other times CCDS coupled with electro-optical shutters maybe used for static or dynamic (explosive) radiography. Image intensifiers provide precise shattering and signal gain. We have developed a set of performance measures to calibrate systems, compare one system to another, and to predict experimental performance. The performance measures discussed in this paper dead with image quality parameters relating to resolution and signal-to-noise ratio.
