   How does a grid reduce X-ray scatter?

   • When a grid is used to reduce x-ray scatter it increases the contrast by a contrast improvement factor (k), but additional radiation dose is needed to compensate for the photons blocked by the grid (Bucky Factor). We have the full blog post below with a description of X-ray scatter with the video links embedded directly in the descriptions.

   How does a grid affect radiographic contrast?

   • The grid absorbs scattered radiation and prevents the scatter from reaching and affecting the image receptor. When a grid is used, radiographic contrast increases. The grid is the primary factor used to decrease scatter and increase contrast. Grids are placed between the patient and the image receptor. Using a grid increases radiographic contrast.

   How do radiographic grids improve image quality?

   • Radiographic grids are used to improve radiographic image quality by absorbing scatter radiation that exits the patient, reducing the amount of scatter reaching the IR. It should be noted that grids do nothing to prevent scatter production; they merely reduce the amount of scatter reaching the IR.

   How does grid ratio affect X-ray image quality?

   • An increase in the grid ratio will make the grid more effective at reducing scatter, but will also require higher x-ray tube technique. X-ray scatter due to Compton Scatter generates background haze in x-ray images and there is a desire to reduce the scatter impact on image quality.

   How does scattered radiation affect a low contrast image?

   • Scattered radiation produces a low contrast image. In 1913, Dr. Gustave Bucky invented a device called the grid. The grid is placed between the patient and the image receptor. The grid absorbs scattered radiation and prevents the scatter from reaching and affecting the image receptor. When a grid is used, radiographic contrast increases.

   What is an anti-scatter grid in X-ray radiography?

   • An anti-scatter grid is often used in X-ray radiography to reduce the scattered X-rays generated from the patient. However, the presence of a grid means the patient dose subsequently increases. Recently, several manufacturers have developed software that is capable of correcting for scattered X-rays without the use of a conventional grid.

   Grid Changes. When a grid is used or the grid ratio is changed the goal is to change the amount of scattered radiation on the radiograph and this changes radiographic contrast. Scattered radiation also increases the IR exposure.
