Abstract
A method of adjusting radiation image read-out conditions used in a radiation image recording and reproducing system wherein preliminary read-out and final read-out are conducted for detecting the radiation image stored in a stimulable phosphor sheet. The method comprises determining a histogram of the amount of light emitted by the stimulable phosphor sheet when it is exposed to stimulating rays during the preliminary read-out. From the histogram, the maximum light emission amount Smax and the minimum light emission amount Smin of a desired image information range are calculated. Read-out conditions are adjusted so that Smax and Smin correspond respectively to the maximum signal level Qmax and the minimum signal level Qmin of a desired input signal range in an image processing apparatus which are determined by the maximum density Dmax and the minimum density Dmin of a correct density range in a finally reproduced visible image.
