Optimization of chest radiographic imaging parameters: a comparison of image quality and entrance skin dose for digital chest radiography systems

We studied the performance of three computed radiography and three direct radiography systems with regard to the image noise and entrance skin dose based on a chest phantom. Images were obtained with kVp of 100, 110, and 120 and mA settings of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 10. Significant differences of image noi...
