TERM: Fr-E: artéfacté

[Guest guest]

Hi,

is there a particular way that 'artéfacté'is translated to English in the

following context of a 'scanner thoracique'.

Acquisition centrée sur le thorax après injection de contraste.

Examen artéfacté par les mouvements respiratoires du patient.

Much appreciated,

Connor

Dear :

The English term is " artifact " .

Look this text extracted from the book " Compued Tomography " :

The definition of an image artifact is not as clearly defined as one might

expect. Theoretically, an image artifact can be defined as any discrepancy

between the reconstructed values in an image and the true attenuation

coefficients of the object. Although this definition is broad enough to

cover

nearly all types of nonideal images, it has little practical value since

nearly every

image produced by a CT scanner contains an artifact by this definition.

Regards,

José Bocic.
