Magnification and Blurring Effects for Radiographers and Radiologic Technologists (with Focal Spot Blur Formula)
Magnification occurs in x-ray imaging because the x-rays are divergent or spread out from the x-ray source. Therefore, the object will appear larger on the detector than the true object size. Magnification in radiography is defined as (Image Size/Object Size) and is equal to the (SID/SOD) which is the source to image distance divided by […]
