This paper presents an image quality evaluation of privacy filters for CRT display workstations. A photometric procedure was developed to evaluate the optical quality of privacy filters across horizontal display viewing angles. Then, the procedure was applied to two commercially-available privacy filter products. The results of the optical evaluation were compared with subjective image quality judgments of the privacy-filtered CRTs viewed under various ambient illumination, screen contrast polarity, and viewing angle conditions. The findings establish a human factors basis and procedure for objectively characterizing the image quality of privacy filters used on CRT displays.

Objectives The aims of this study were to evaluate the subjective image quality and reliability of two digital sensors. In addition, the image quality of the two sensors evaluated by specialists and general dentists were compared. Methods: 30 intraoral bitewings from five patients were included in the study, 15 were exposed with a Dixi sensor (CCD-based) and 15 with a ProSensor (CMOS-based) using modified parallel technique. Three radiologists and three general dentists evaluated the images in pair. A five-point scale was used to register the image quality. Visual grading characteristics (VGC) analysis was performed to compare the image quality and the observer agreement was assessed in terms of intra class correlation co-efficient. Results No statistically significant difference was found on image quality between the sensors. The average scores of the observer agreement were moderate with an average of 0.66 and an interval of 0.30 to 0.87, suggesting that there was a large variation on preference of image quality. However, there was a statistically significant difference in terms of the area under the VGC- curves between the specialist group and the general dentist group ( p = 0.043), in which the specialist group tended to favor the ProSensor. Conclusions Subjective image quality of the two intraoral sensors were comparable when evaluated by both general and oral radiologists. However, the radiologists seemed to prefer the ProSensor to the Dixi as compared to general dentists. Inter- observer conformance showed a large variation on the preference of the image quality.

Abstract In this third-generation dual-source CT (DSCT) study, we retrospectively investigated radiation dose and image quality of portal-venous high-pitch emergency CT in 60 patients (28 female, mean age 56 years) with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2. Patients were dichotomized in groups A (median BMI 31.5 kg/m2; n = 33) and B (36.8 kg/m2; n = 27). Volumetric CT dose index (CTDIvol), size-specific dose estimate (SSDE), dose length product (DLP) and effective dose (ED) were assessed. Contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and dose-independent figure-of-merit (FOM) CNR were calculated. Subjective image quality was assessed using a five-point scale. Mean values of CTDIvol, SSDE as well as normalized DLP and ED were 7.6 ± 1.8 mGy, 8.0 ± 1.8 mGy, 304 ± 74 mGy * cm and 5.2 ± 1.3 mSv for group A, and 12.6 ± 3.7 mGy, 11.0 ± 2.6 mGy, 521 ± 157 mGy * cm and 8.9 ± 2.7 mSv for group B (p < 0.001). CNR of the liver and spleen as well as each calculated FOM CNR were significantly higher in group A (p < 0.001). Subjective image quality was good in both groups. In conclusion, third-generation abdominal high-pitch emergency DSCT yields good image quality in obese patients. Radiation dose increases in patients with a BMI > 36.8 kg/m2.

This paper investigates camera phone image quality, namely the effect of sensor megapixel (MP) resolution on the perceived quality of images displayed at full size on high-quality desktop displays. For the purpose, we use images from simulated cameras with different sensor MP resolutions. We employ methods recommended in the IEEE 1858 Camera Phone Image Quality (CPIQ) standard, as well as other established psychophysical paradigms, to obtain subjective image quality ratings for systems with varying MP resolution from large numbers of observers. These are subsequently used to validate image quality metrics (IQMs) relating to sharpness and resolution, including those from the CPIQ standard. Further, we define acceptable levels of quality - when changing MP resolution - for mobile phone images in Subjective Quality Scale (SQS) units. Finally, we map SQS levels to categories obtained from star-rating experiments (commonly used to rate consumer experience). Our findings draw a relationship between the MP resolution of the camera sensor and the LCD device. The chosen metrics predict quality accurately, but only the metrics proposed by CPIQ return results in calibrated JNDs in quality. We close by discussing the appropriateness of star-rating experiments for the purpose of measuring subjective image quality and metric validation.
