Abstract

A method for the elimination of residual image artifacts from prior image exposure in an x-ray image obtained by exposing an x-ray image detector which includes a photoconductor to imaging x-ray radiation, wherein the residual image artifacts are eliminated by a process which includes obtaining and averaging pre and post exposure image data from the detector and subtracting the averaged pre and post exposure data from the image exposure data.
