Abstract
Recall from Chapter 2 that the energy imparted to the intensifying screen has primary, scatter and extra-focal components:
In order to generate h int we need to find the primary component:
Chapter 2 explained how we compute \( E_{{pse}}^{{imp}} \) and Chapter 3 explained how we can estimate the scatter component \(\mathop E\nolimits_s^{imp}\). In this chapter we show how to model and estimate the extra-focal component \(\mathop E\nolimits_e^{imp}\).
