  		Fig. 2. —Graph shows average experimental contrast-detail curves for the film-screen radiography ({diamond}), computed radiography ({blacktriangleup}), and digital flat-panel detector radiography (•) systems. Data points were obtained by averaging responses of five radiologists who reviewed images independently. Bars on either side of symbol indicate range.
