Abstract: A system and method for digital x-ray imaging may correct distortion in a digital image by determining the cell size of a grid. A rotational correction may be applied to the cell to correct for distortion that might result from improper alignment between an imaging sensor used to capture the image and the image itself. Stretch factors for the pixels are calculated and applied to the cells of the grid to provide cells of consistent size. The calculated stretch factors may be applied to subsequent images to provide an efficient method for optical distortion correction.

Abstract: A system and method for high resolution digital x-ray imaging which utilizes multiple imaging sensors is disclosed. In the preferred embodiment, the system includes multiple imaging sensors with overlapping fields of view. The imaging sensors are preferably interfaced with a general purpose computer capable of seamlessly combining the multiple images captured by the multiple imaging sensors.
