Abstract
Certain embodiments of the present invention provide for an imaging system including an index value source, a transmitter, a receiver, and an image processing component. The index value source is capable of generating an index value. The index value source is part of and/or included in an imaging system detector. The transmitter is in communication with the index value source. The receiver is in communication with the transmitter. The image processing component is in communication with the receiver. The image processing component includes a lookup table. The image processing component is capable of generating a pixel value based at least in part on an index value and a lookup table. The pixel value has a bit-width greater than the index value. In an embodiment, the receiver is in wireless communication with the transmitter.
