Ringartefacts in CT Problem: variations in lower threshold lead to differing counting behavior for every pixel (‘gain’) -> ringartefacts in computed tomography
Equalization using Flatfields Histogram of Flatfields: THL-maskbit 0, 7; different THS -> calculate width and distance of distributions
Optimum THS linear fit of right boundary of bit0-distribution vs THS -> OptimumTHS (for every Chip on the Quad!)
Maskquality - Definition Countrate independent parameter for maskquality!
