Abstract

In phantom experiments a number of intensifying screens were tested as regards their usefulness for angiography. Film speed was adjusted so as to make possible a constant radiographic exposure despite screen speeds varying by a factor of 3. Thus, screen unsharpness varied considerably. However, it was of no practical importance as long as the radiographic exposure was kept constant. This observation indicates that the modulation transfer function is of limited value in differentiating between screens for high-speed angiography. Likewise, film contrast was of little significance for image quality, as compared with radiographic exposure to the intensifying screens.
