[Quant efficiency of the detection as a quality parameter of the visualization equipment].
The critical parameter of notion "quant efficiency of detection" is defined in the paper. Different methods of specifying the detection quant efficiency (DQE) are under discussion. Thus, techniques of DQE determination for a whole unit and means of DQE finding at terminal space frequency are addressed. The notion of DQE at zero frequency is in the focus of attention. Finally, difficulties occurring in determining the above parameter as well as its disadvantages (as a parameter characterizing the quality of X-ray irradiation visualizing systems) are also discussed.
