The introduction highlights the Spectra PHORAD Photometer's precision and accuracy, exclusively designed for radiologists and radiographers for NDT/QA applications. It emphasizes its essential role in quality assurance for medical imaging at diagnostic imaging departments in hospitals and clinics, boasting ease of use and cost-effectiveness.
Spectra PhoRad Photometers are essential for quality assurance of medical imaging at
Diagnostic Imaging departments in hospitals and clinics.
PhoRad is very easy to use and most cost effective
photometer in the industry.
This innovative, hand-held radiographic optical
instrument is a completely portable, battery powered
auto ranging photometer designed specifically to measure
light intensity of medical diagnostic imaging
displays, film viewing boxes, image monitors, collimator
light field and etc. Photometer reads directly in candelas per
meter
squared (cd/m2) and nits as set forth in the
new standards outlined in the Standard
Practice for Radiographic Examination (ASTM
E-1742-08).
Also to optimize image contrast, it also measures the
viewing room ambient background illumination falling on
the viewer surface as set forth in the new standards.
Diagnostic Imaging (Radiology) Accuracy and reliability
of diagnosis in hospitals and doctors clinics greatly
depend upon the conditions under which radiographs and
images are viewed. These conditions include the
luminance levels in candelas per meter squared (cd/m2) of the display devices (viewing boxes,
image workstation monitors, image intensifier monitors)
as well as the ambient room illumination (the amount of
light falling on the viewing surfaces) in lux.
In an effort to reduce the rate of misdiagnosis
(estimated to be as high as 30% by a number of research
studies), the Federal Drug Administration, American
College of Radiology (ACR), the American Cancer Society
and the European community of radiologists have all
adopted guidelines and standards for viewing lighting
levels.
In order to improve the quality of image interpretation
and to reduce the chance of misdiagnosis. Spectra Cine
is introducing this New Spectra PhoRad Photometer and it could easily provide radiology
departments with a hand-held photometer that measures
both display device luminance and ambient light (illuminance).
Spectra PhoRad Photometer measures light output of
illuminator to ensure that user is in compliance with ASTM
E-1742-08 and ACR-recommended light levels. Readings are in nits or
candelas per meter squared (cd/m2) or foot Lamberts (fl). A second
Cosine Corrected Diffuser to measure the Ambient light in lux (lx) or
foot-candles (fc). This instrument is essential for quality
assurance of medical imaging at Diagnostic Imaging
departments in hospitals and clinics.
