Abstract
This paper describes the design, physical properties, and field experience with image-quality indicators or plaques that have been used for the baseline assessment of x-ray systems for the detection of contraband in small packages. Plaques have been developed and used in the baseline assessment of transmission, backscatter, and computed tomography systems.
