Better scatter radiation reduction
- A higher grid ratio leads to better scatter radiation reduction because it has narrower lead strips. The narrow lead strips absorb and block a higher percentage of scattered radiation, preventing it from reaching the detector. This results in a cleaner image with less scatter and improved overall image quality.

Antiscatter grids improve the X-ray image contrast at a cost of patient radiation doses. The choice of appropriate grid or its removal requires a good knowledge of grid characteristics, especially for pediatric digital imaging.

Incorrect centering of the x-ray beam to the center line of the grid can cause grid cut-off on the radiograph. The x-ray tube should always be positioned so that the central ray is pointed at the center line on the grid.

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.

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.
The grid ratio is the ratio of the height of the grid plate, often called grid septa, to the separation width (grid Ratio = h/D). If the width of the grid plates is left constant then higher grid plates will block more scatter.
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.
