- The grid ratio is a measure of the height of the lead strip to the interspace distance, and is a good measure of the selectivity of primary to scatter transmission. In general, a grid with a higher grid ratio will reject scatter better than a lower grid ratio, due to the limited angle that is allowed by the grid structure.

The numerical image quality metrics such as contrast, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), high-contrast spatial resolution (HCSR), and SIF IQ were determined. These results were evaluated to determine the relation between grid parameters and image quality metrics.
Apr 15, 2019 · In this study, we aimed to analyse the quality of X-ray images acquired using grids with different specifications and proposed standardised criteria for grid use on the basis of our results.

The antiscatter grid plays an important role for enhancing image quality in projection radiography by transmitting a majority of primary radiation and selectively rejecting scattered radiation.
A grid is one of the key components of a digital radiography (DR) system because it removes scattered radiation, which arises when X-rays penetrate an object and improves diagnostic accuracy by enhancing image quality.

Feb 17, 2015 · Therefore, image quality is instead quantified by signal-difference-to-noise ratio (SDNR), a.k.a. contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR). Removing the grid allows more primary radiation to reach the detector, which might compensate for the additional quantum noise caused by scattered radiation.

The grid ratio (r) is an important parameter describing the antiscatter grid because it affects many other grid quality metrics, such as the contrast improvement ratio (K), primary transmission (Tp), and scatter transmission (Ts).
This technology improves the quality of images taken without an anti-scatter grid at bedside or emer- gency radiography. Conventionally, grids are commonly used to reduce the influence of scattered radiation.
