Filaments are grouped in sets of four differing by relative direction against the anode-cathode one. For every group the number of visible filaments is shown as well as the min, max and average CNR.

For each filament of a group, CNR is calculated using the following formula.

CNR=|μDμB|σB

where:

  • μD: mean pixel value of the detail ROI
  • μB: mean pixel value of the background ROI
  • σB: standard deviation of pixel values of the background ROI
