Abstract
Systems and methods for controlling an imaging device are disclosed. In one aspect, a method determines a set of control parameters for the imaging device, and acquires an image based on the set of control parameters. The method determines a plurality of image quality measurements of the first image. A polygon may be displayed on an electronic display based on a plurality of image quality measurements. For example, positions of polygon vertices may be determined relative to an origin point based on corresponding image quality measurements. In some aspects, input may be received from a user interface indicating a change in position of one or more of the vertices and the corresponding image quality measurements. In some aspects, a new set of control parameters may then be determined to achieve the changed image quality measurement(s). In some aspects a composite measure of the image quality measurements may also be displayed.
