摘要
A method for conditioning data used in the measurement of the modulation transfer function (MTF) is discussed. This method is based upon imposing the constraint that the edge spread function (ESF) is monotonic. The advantages of this technique, when applicable, are demonstrated with simulated examples for which the true MTF is known. The application of this technique in the measurement of the MTF of a digital detector in clinical use is also demonstrated. (C) 2003 American Association of Physicists in Medicine.
