Sažetak
The quality of diagnostic information provided by an X-ray examination depends on the quality of an X-ray image obtained on the film or through computer image reconstruction methods. The quality of the image is defined by two main parameters: degree of resolution and difference in optical densities, the latter being related to the type and thickness of a target tissue. This study is an attempt to asses those parameters as simple and as reproducible possible. Within the framework of the study, the influence of conditions under which the image was obtained as well as the reproducibility of X-ray diagnostic procedures will be discussed. The results of this study were meant to serve as the basis for optimization of X-ray diagnostic examinations, respecting also the specificities of an available X-ray unit.
