Abstract
A system for capturing an image of transmitted radiation includes transmission of a disable signal to disable a bias light of a camera at a time prior to transmission of radiation, and acquisition of an image from the camera during transmission of the radiation and during deactivation of the bias light. In some embodiments, the disable signal is transmitted in response to the reception of a pre-radiation signal, the pre-radiation signal indicating that transmission of the radiation will commence approximately one frame scan time after the pre-radiation signal is received, and the disable signal is transmitted approximately when the pre-radiation signal is received.
