Non-destructive testing — Qualification of radiographic film digitisation systems — Part 1: Definitions, quantitative measurements of image quality parameters, standard reference film and qualitative control

Scope

This document specifies procedures for the evaluation of basic performance parameters of the radiographic film digitisation process, such as spatial resolution and spatial linearity, density range, density contrast sensitivity and characteristic transfer curve, which are applied in ISO 14096-2. These procedures can be integrated into the system software, and together with a standard reference film (see Annex B), used for quality control of the digitisation process. This reference film provides a series of test targets for performance evaluation. The test targets are suitable for evaluating a digitisation system with a basic spatial resolution down to 10 µm, a density contrast sensitivity down to 0,02 optical density, a density range of 0,5 to 4,5 and a film size capacity of (350 × 430) mm2.
This document does not address signal processing and display of the digitised data.
