Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To validate the following theory: "With TRUVIEW ART™ applied a detector's quantitative performance index, MTF(Modulation Transfer Function), is increased 20% or more". This is to examine the effect of the increased MTF index, whether it influences or not the interpreter's preference

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Background of Study :

DRTECH Corp. has developed and applied for patenting the unique technology of TRUVIEW ART™. TRUVIEW ART™ is advanced image reconstruction technology that restores image quality from the side effects of scattering signals in indirect type scintillator detectors. It is an advanced image pre-processing technology that constructs signal scattering models (PSF) of indirect type detector scintillators. Image sharpness (MTF) is improved by predicting scattering models and eliminating the scattering signal.

Purpose of Research and Assumption :

Indirect conversion type detectors using scintillators are universal in today's diagnostic imaging area. However, they have a disadvantage of signal scattering compared with direct conversion type detectors. TRUVIEW ART™(Advanced Reconstruction Technology) can restore images from the scattering problems. The purpose of this study is to verify how well it improves the usefulness in clinical diagnostic imaging. Evaluation will measure the improvements in MTF, which is the quantitative performance index of a detector.

Clinical study of TRUVIEW ART

Chest x-ray image acquisition Creation of TRUVIEW ART applied image Comparison of TRUVIEW ART image with original image

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Chest x-ray image acquisition

Intervention Type RADIATION

Obtain a digital X-ray chest image of the patient

Creation of TRUVIEW ART applied image

Intervention Type RADIATION

Application of TRUVIEW ART to the original chest x-ray image to create a new set of TRUVIEW ART applied image.

Outcome: 2 versions of chest image

1. Original Chest X-ray (w/o TRUVIEW ART)
2. TRUVIEW ART applied image

Comparison of TRUVIEW ART image with original image

Intervention Type RADIATION

Comparison of 2 versions of chest image side by side Performance evaluation may consist of detailed categories such as expression of chest structure, visibility level of pulmonary vascular system, etc. For all categories visibility and preference will be scored and each category will be analyzed to point out any statistical difference
