3 Terms and Definitions
What is defined in GB/T 10149, YY/T 0063, YY/T 0481-2016, YY/T 0590.1-2018 and YY/T
0741, and the following terms and definitions are applicable to this document.
3.1 Calibration
Calibration refers to some processing, in which the detector completes necessary operations, so
that the image can satisfy the evaluation requirements, such as: background correction, gain
correction and bad pixel correction, etc. These processing are linear and irrelevant to the image.
3.2 Central Axis
Central axis refers to a straight line perpendicular to the incidence plane and passing through
the center of the entrance field.
3.3 Bright Image
Bright image refers to an original X-ray exposure image without the background correction,
gain correction and bad pixel correction.
3.4 Dark Image
Dark image refers to an original unexposed image without the background correction, gain
correction and bad pixel correction.
3.5 Noise Equivalent Dose
Noise equivalent dose refers to the corresponding dose when the quantum noise and the system
noise are equivalent.
NOTE: quantum noise is the random fluctuation of X-photons absorbed by the detector; system
noise is the inherent fluctuation of the detector system that deviates from the expected
value of the stochastic process.
3.6 Linear Dynamic Range
Linear dynamic range refers to the range of X-ray incident dose changes that can be linearly
detected by the detector. The minimum value and maximum value of this range are respectively
represented by the noise equivalent dose and the maximum linear dose. The coefficient of
determination (i.e., the squared value of the correlation coefficient r) is used to represent the
gray value and linear dose degree.

Where,
x1---the size declared by the manufacturer.

6.5 Image Quality
6.5.1 Noise equivalent dose
The test layout is shown in Figure A.1 in Appendix A. Unless it is otherwise specified, the
distance from the focal point to the surface of the detector shall be 1.5 m. The X-ray field
completely covers the detector surface; the central axis of the X-ray field is consistent with the
center of the detector surface and perpendicular to the detector surface.
a) Take the RQA5 standard radiation quality specified in Chapter 6 of YY/T 0481-2016
and the dose or gray value defined by the manufacturer as the calibration conditions
to complete the calibration described in 6.1.3;
b) Collect a calibrated dark image;
c) Maintain the tube voltage defined by the RQA5 radiation quality, within the range of
the noise equivalent dose value declared by the detector manufacturer, collect 4
calibrated exposure images, and record the dose value at the center of the detector
surface corresponding to each image. At the center of the image collected in Step b)
and Step c), select a sampling area of 64 64 pixels and calculate the variance of the
sampling area. Perform linear fitting on the obtained 5 groups of dose values and the
corresponding variance. In accordance with Formula (3), calculate the noise
equivalent dose and calculate the coefficient of determination R2:
Where,
b---the intercept of the dose - variance curve and the Y axis, that is, the variance of
the image collected in Step b);
K---the slope of the dose - variance curve.
6.5.2 Linear dynamic range
The test layout is shown in Figure A.1 in Appendix A. Unless it is otherwise specified, the
distance from the focal point to the surface of the detector shall be 1.5 m. The X-ray field
completely covers the detector surface; the central axis of the X-ray field is consistent with the
center of the detector surface and perpendicular to the detector surface.
a) Use the RQA5 standard radiation quality specified in Chapter 6 of YY/T 0481-2016
to complete the calibration specified in 6.1.3. Within the gain and dose input range
specified by the manufacturer, uniformly select 5 test points (including the minimum
linear dose and the maximum linear dose; the minimum linear dose can be replaced
by the noise equivalent dose; if the maximum linear dose conditions cannot be
achieved, approach them as much as possible); obtain the corresponding five
calibrated bright images through exposure acquisition; measure the dose value at the
center of the detector surface for each exposure.
b) At the center of the image collected in Step a), select a sampling area of 64 64 pixels
and calculate the average gray value of the sampling area. Perform linear fitting on
the obtained 5 groups of dose values and the corresponding average gray value data,
and calculate the coefficient of determination R2.
c) The linear dynamic range is obtained through the noise equivalent dose and the
maximum linear dose value.
NOTE: the minimum linear dose can be replaced by NED. For the measurement of the
maximum linear dose, it can be approximated through the method of gradually
increasing the current-time product. If the current-time product step size is
excessively large, the SID method can be adjusted to approach the maximum linear
dose as much as possible.
6.5.3 Spatial resolution
The test layout is shown in Figure A.1. Remove 21 mm aluminum attenuation; at the dose or
gray value specified by the manufacturer, complete the calibration of the detector.
The test device adopts a line pair resolution test card, and the test card is 45 to the pixel matrix.
Under the calibration conditions, take the image and properly adjust the image to the optimum;
visually observe and record the spatial resolution value and the corresponding loading factor
combination.
6.5.7 Afterimage

A.3.3 “detection of proliferation hysteresis effect” in YY/T 0590.1-2018.
6.5.8 Artifact

a) Take the RQA5 standard radiation quality specified in Chapter 6 of YY/T 0481-2016
and the dose or gray value defined by the manufacturer as the calibration conditions
to complete the calibration described in 6.1.3;
b) Expose at 20% and 80% of the maximum linear dose;

hardwood (for example, hardwood > 600 kg/m3) board placed flat on a hard foundation
(concrete); let it freely fall once in each of 3 different initial states. After the falling test is over,
the detector shall be able to normally work.
6.6.2 Bearing
Horizontally place the detector on a hard foundation plane larger than its area; evenly distribute
a load of 135 kg or the target uniform load declared by the manufacturer on the surface of the
