A simple method for determining the modulation transfer function in digital radiography

The authors developed a simple method for determining the presampling modulation transfer function (MTF). which includes the unsharpness of the detector and the effect of the sampling aperture, in digital radiographic (DR) systems. With this method, the presampling MTF is determined by the Fourier transform of a ;finely sampled' line spread function (LSF) obtained with a slightly angulated slit in a single exposure. Since the effective sampling...
