Abstract
A method for rapidly starting up an imaging system and an imaging system using the method is provided by reducing the time required to acquire the AEC and AGC parameters required for visually appealing imaging. The method employs an initial fast frame rate and binning and skipping to determine AEC and AGC parameters for use in subsequent normal frame rate imaging.
