Image customization

Close interaction between radiologists & application specialists

The evolving taste of the radiologist

Image quality preferences are highly dependent on the previous images a radiologist has been trained on

The starting point

Default values of MUSICA™ Xpert

MUSICA™ Xpert was developed in close collaboration between Agfa’s R&D researchers and radiologists across the globe and was validated through extensive clinical evaluations. Recognizing that image preferences vary between users, MUSICA™ Xpert offers three preconfigured rendering styles, Soft, Base, and Crisp, allowing radiologists to select the image appearance that best matches their viewing preferences.

Each rendering style is fully optimized using embedded AI and advanced image processing to deliver consistent, high-quality diagnostic images.

An iterative review to find the optimum

At start-up time, an Agfa application expert reviews images of different body parts together with the lead Radiologist.

Three simple controls to allow the user to adjust the appearance of the image to meet their specific requirements.

  • The brightness adjustment controls the overall brightness of the image.
  • The contrast adjustment controls the multi-scale contrast within the image to modify the visualization of key chest features and the appearance of scatter radiation in the image
  • The sharpness controls the fine detail in the image and the appearance of noise
