Contrast recovery

Contrast recovery refers to the ability of an imaging system to accurately detect and measure the contrast between different regions of an image. This is typically measured by comparing the contrast of an image before and after a specific process or procedure, such as the application of a filter or the use of a particular imaging technique.

In medical imaging, contrast recovery is particularly important for procedures such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), where accurate detection of contrast differences can help diagnose a wide range of medical conditions.

Contrast recovery can be affected by a number of factors, including the quality of the imaging system itself, the type of contrast agent used, and the specific imaging technique employed. Different imaging systems may have different levels of contrast recovery, and it is important to choose the appropriate system for the specific medical application.
