PACS TEST PATTERN IN DIGITAL FORMAT

  • For evaluating and calibrating monitors

  • For testing film printers

  • Introduction
    The PACS Test Pattern provides a simple, objective approach to system evaluation and quality control, allowing for quick, objective testing of image quality by a single observer. Simply digitize the PACS Test Pattern by loading the test image from the disk and display it at full resolution on your display monitor. Then, using your systems controls, magnify and view different areas of the test pattern.

    Applications
    A regular quality control procedure is mandatory to ensure a diagnostic level of image quality with PACS and teleradiology. A quick, objective and reproducible QC test is needed to ensure optimization of the digitizer and display system.

    As an integral part of your regular QC for a laser scanner of CCD digitizer, the digital format PACS Test Pattern will prove itself as an invaluable QC tool for testing image display systems and film printers.

    Features
    Evaluates important benchmarks of radiographic image quality, including:
  • High contrast resolution
  • Low contrast discrimination
  • Linearity of gray scale response
  • Geometric distortion
  • Reproduction of continuous fine lines
  • Digitizer noise

  • PACS/Teleradiology Test Pattern is superior to the SMPTE Test Pattern for PACS/Teleradiology quality control.

    The PACS/Teleradiology Test Pattern tests:

  • The ability to discriminate between 16 different gray scale levels from its lowest to its highest optical density, which is a greater number of gray scale levels than is tested by the SMPTE Test Pattern.

  • For low contrast discrimination with a rose-hole-type pattern which is not available on the SMPTE Pattern.

  • The ability to discriminate between different gray levels on both sides of the pattern, as well as in the center of the pattern. These features, designed specifically for QC in teleradiology systems, provide a more superior test of gray scale reproduction than the SMPTE Pattern.

  • High contrast resolution in horizontal, vertical and diagonal axes, while the SMPTE Pattern test only horizontal and vertical axes.

  • For specific artifacts which are important to digitization of radiographs, such as the ability to reproduce fine lines, blooming from bright areas, and light-leakage along the sides of the image.

  • Routinely using the Digital PACS Test Patterns ensures optimized digitizer performance.
