Performance

The composite, stitched image which results from the image stitching process
of the Full Leg Full Spine application is compressed. Furthermore, technical
acquisition factors vary greatly with Full Leg Full Spine imaging; for example,
a Full Leg Full Spine image may be intentionally acquired with low dose or no
anti-scatter grid to reduce exposure to a pediatric patient.
The resulting image quality is generally suboptimal for most skeletal studies
when compared to normal computed radiographic techniques.
The composite, stitched image is created to allow accurate softcopy
measurement of distances and angles by qualified medical practitioners.

Note: For specific information on performance with regard to
particular digitizers, refer to the respective digitizer (system)
User Manuals.
WARNING:
Any incidental clinical findings that are seen on the original or
stitched images, beyond the scope of measurements of angles
and distances between skeletal entities, should be verified or
further evaluated by additional diagnostic methods.
