35、 X-RAY IMAGE INTENSIFIER television systems in the future. It is necessary, therefore, to define parameters that describe the specific imaging properties of these DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES and to standardize the measurement procedures employed. There is growing consensus in the scientific world

36、that the DETECTIVE QUANTUM EFFICIENCY (DQE) is the most suitable parameter for describing the imaging performance of an X-ray imaging device. The DQE describes the ability of the imaging device to preserve the signal-to-NOISE ratio from the radiation field to the resulting digital image data. Since

37、in X-ray imaging, the NOISE in the radiation field is intimately coupled to the AIR KERMA level, DQE values can also be considered to describe the dose efficiency of a given DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICE. NOTE 1 In spite of the fact that the DQE is widely used to describe the performance of imaging d

38、evices, the connection between this physical parameter and the decision performance of a human observer is not yet completely understood 1, 3.1)NOTE 2 IEC 61262-5 specifies a method to determine the DQE of X-RAY IMAGE INTENSIFIERS at nearly zero SPATIAL FREQUENCY. It focuses only on the electro-opti

39、cal components of X-RAY IMAGE INTENSIFIERS, not on the imaging properties as this standard does. As a consequence, the output is measured as an optical quantity (luminance), and not as digital data. Moreover, IEC 61262-5 prescribes the use of a RADIATION SOURCE ASSEMBLY, whereas this standard prescr

40、ibes the use of an X-RAY TUBE. The scope of IEC 61262-5 is limited to X-RAY IMAGE INTENSIFIERS and does not interfere with the scope of this standard. The DQE is already widely used by manufacturers to describe the performance of their DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICE. The specification of the DQE is al

41、so required by regulatory agencies (such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for admission procedures. However, there is presently no standard governing either the measurement conditions or the measurement procedure, with the consequence that values from different sources may not be comparable

42、. This standard has therefore been developed in order to specify the measurement procedure together with the format of the conformance statement for the DETECTIVE QUANTUM EFFICIENCY of DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES. In the DQE calculations proposed in this standard, it is assumed that system respons

43、e is measured for objects that attenuate all energies equally (task-independent) 5. This standard will be beneficial for manufacturers, users, distributors and regulatory agencies. It is the third document out of a series of three related standards: Part 1, which is intended to be used in RADIOGRAPH

44、Y, excluding MAMMOGRAPHY and RADIOSCOPY. Part 1-2, which is intended to be used for MAMMOGRAPHY. the present Part 1-3, which is intended to be used for dynamic imaging detectors. These standards can be regarded as the first part of the family of IEC 62220 standards describing the relevant parameters

46、ing 1 Scope This part of IEC 62220 specifies the method for the determination of the DETECTIVE QUANTUM EFFICIENCY (DQE) of DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES as a function of AIR KERMA and of SPATIAL FREQUENCY for the working conditions in the range of the medical application as specified by the MANUFACT

47、URER. The intended users of this part of IEC 62220 are manufacturers and well equipped test laboratories. This Part 1-3 is restricted to DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES that are used for dynamic imaging such as, but not exclusively, direct and indirect flat panel-detector based systems. It is not reco

48、mmended to use this part of IEC 62220 for digital X-RAY IMAGE INTENSIFIER-based systems. NOTE 1 This negative recommendation is based on the low frequency drop, vignetting and geometrical distortion present in these devices which may put severe limitations on the applicability of the measurement met

49、hods described in this standard. This part of IEC 62220 is not applicable to: DIGITAL X-RAY IMAGING DEVICES intended to be used in mammography or in dental radiography; COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY; and systems in which the X-ray field is scanned across the patient. NOTE 2 The devices noted above are excluded because they contain many parameters (for instance, beam qualities, geometry, time dependence, etc.) which differ from those important for d
