Abstract
A new phantom set, which consists of ten acrylic plate phantoms with several kinds of holes, was designed for visual detection tests of intra-oral x-ray imagin systems. Detection tests of two kinds of dental x-ray films were performed using three kinds of phantoms, an aluminum test object, Burger's phantom and the new phantom set. Detection-ability curves generated against optical density were compared. Moreover, correlation between the SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) factor and detection ability was analyzed. False positive rates were also compared. To reduce the number of phantom plate that had to be tested in the new phantom set, the number of detected signals for each phantom plate was cumulatively added and statistically compared to the total number of detected signals.
