A radiographic imaging system and digital detector detect extraneous signals during DR detector image readout and compensate or remove extraneous signal artifacts from radiographic images. Novel capture and post processing procedures prevent undesirable noise artifacts from appearing in final radiographic images.

Digital radiography detector image readout system and process

An apparatus for transporting a sheet recording medium () has an entrance drive roller () paired with a corresponding entrance pressure roller () to form an entrance nip () for transporting the sheet recording medium () into a scanning section () between the entrance nip () and an exit nip (). The exit nip () is formed by an exit drive roller () with a corresponding exit pressure roller () for transporting the recording medium () out from the scanning section (). At each end of the entrance pressure roller (), an entrance pressure roller actuation arm () actuates the entrance pressure roller () to exert variable force against the entrance drive roller (). At each end of the exit pressure roller (), an exit pressure roller actuation arm () actuates the exit pressure roller () to exert variable force against the exit drive roller ().
