Grainy X Ray Image. Increased internal shielding of the x ray source is the first choice if the same possibilities for geometrical magnification of the imaged object are to be maintained. A clinical example of underexposure is illustrated in figure 3 demonstrating the lack of detail in the image and preponderance of a grainy mottled appearance.
A wider x ray shield covering the entire front of the x ray source had to be applied. Even with the lowest exposure settings some images can come out too dark. Image quality grainy or noisy problem.
Other solutions to decrease scattered radiation would be the following.
If the positioning is correct confirm the generator settings technique factors are set properly. Even with the lowest exposure settings some images can come out too dark. Image appears to be too light grainy and lack of contrast. This will create a better image by.
