what is the difference between spatial frequency and spatial resolution?

Spatial Frequency: -the unit of measure for spatial frequency is line pairs per millimeter resolved in the imaging system Spatial Resolution: -geometric factor, the accuracy of structural lines -higher spatial frequency then results in improved spatial resolution

greater bit depth = greater ______ = greater ________

greater bit depth = greater contrast resolution = greater number of possible shades of gray that a pixel can have

true

Define Field of view (FOV)

-"how much of the patient" is imaged in matrix, AND displayed on the monitor -matrix size and FOV are independent -FOV may change w/o changing matrix size -size of a pixel is related to size of matrix and FOV -As matrix increases and FOV remains the same, pixel size must decrease to fit into matrix

-spatial domain: is location, where the pixel is according to the x and y coordinates -spatial frequency domain: described as the resolution and contrast based on the # of cycles per unit length (definition of frequency) *small structures produce high frequency and high contrast

define pixel bit depth
