Title:
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PULSED RADIATION IMAGE ACQUISITION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005064912
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method of acquiring at least one image from an image recording medium using a pulsed radiation source is provided. In one aspect, a method of scanning an image recording medium that has been exposed to X-ray radiation comprises providing first radiation along a plurality of scan traces over a surface of the image recording medium such that the first radiation does not impinge on the image recording over at least one interval along each of the plurality of scan traces. The pulsed laser source may reduce and/or eliminate cross-influence artifacts in images resulting from pulsed radiation image acquisition.
