Robust Fourier‐based slanted‐edge method to measure scatter ratio
A simple and direct method of measuring the SPR obtained with both uniform and nonuniform test phantoms is described. Validated both experimentally and theoretically, it uses the Fourier LFD obtained from a normalized slanted-edge profile and works for a wide range of practical mammographic and radiographic conditions.
