    Abstract: A radiographic imaging system having a number of useable digital radiographic detectors selectively activates one of the detectors to capture a radiographic image. The DR detectors each include a movement detector configured to transmit a movement signal when a movement of the corresponding detector is sensed. A portion of the system is disabled in response to receiving a movement signal transmitted from a motion sensor in a detector other than the active detector.

  • Patent number: 7542602
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for processing a digital medical image using a computer with a display for viewing an input digital medical image The method includes steps of: accessing the input digital medical image; displaying the input digital medical image at a first size in an image display area of the display, the first size being smaller than the image display area; allowing a user to define a region of interest for the digital medical image displaying at least a portion of the defined region of interest in the image display area by mapping the digital medical image and at least a portion of the defined region of interest to a second, larger size within the image display area; and masking any portion of the digital image not disposed within the region of interest.
