Abstract
In one aspect of the invention a method for processing a fluoroscopic image is provided. The method includes scanning an object with an imaging system including at least one radiation source and at least one detector array, acquiring a plurality of dark images to generate a baseline image, acquiring a plurality of lag images subsequent to the baseline image, determining a plurality of parameters of a power law using at least one lag image and at least one baseline image, and performing a log—log extrapolation of the power law including the determined parameters.
