    1313DXT-I/1515DXT-I/2520DX-I/3030DX-I X-ray Detectors This range ensures that gain calibration meets both the upper and lower dose requirements under all modes of operation. The generator X-ray source settings determine the dose requirement. To reduce the effects of noise, the average of each pixel in the flat field image is calculated by accumulating a number of frames into an internal memory buffer, then dividing the sum of each pixel by the number of frames acquired.

In some applications, it is advantageous to update the offset correction file directly before each image. Although the a-Si detectors are resistant to X-rays, they can exhibit degradation over time when exposed to high X-ray dose environments.
