Full Desc
“X-Ray Image” refers to any image generated using X-ray radiation, including but not limited to projection radiographs, fluoroscopic images or frames, tomosynthesis images, reconstructed or reformatted views derived from X-ray data, and the like. An X-ray image may depict any projection or view (e.g., anterior–posterior (AP), lateral (LAT), oblique, axial, or the like) and may be acquired as weight-bearing or non-weight-bearing. In one embodiment, a weight-bearing X-ray image is acquired while the patient applies partial or full body weight to the imaged region (including standing, simulated-standing, or externally load-applied configurations). In one embodiment, a non-weight-bearing X-ray image is acquired without applied load to the imaged region.
An X-ray image may be digital or analog (film), may be stored, transmitted, or displayed in any format or container (including DICOM, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, or the like), and may include embedded metadata (e.g., timestamps, orientation, calibration data, or the like). An X-ray image may be windowed/leveled, cropped, scaled, resampled, filtered, denoised, compressed, decompressed, annotated, rendered, reformatted, or otherwise transformed without ceasing to be an X-ray image. In one embodiment, an X-ray image may be displayed on a screen, printed, or otherwise reproduced, and depictions captured from such displays or prints (including screenshots, scans, photographs, video frames, or the like) constitute representations of the underlying X-ray image
