ABSTRACT:
A method for identifying and correcting bad pixels in an x-ray image produced by a large area solid state x-ray detector is disclosed. Initially, each bad pixel is identified. An appropriate correction scheme is then selected from a predetermined list. A correction code is then assigned to each bad pixel, the correction code corresponding to the selected correction scheme. The correction code is stored in a pixel-correction memory, and the correction code for each pixel is read during imaging. Finally, each bad pixel value found during the correction code reading is replaced using the selected correction scheme, and can be immediately displayed.
