The influence of picture element size on the quality of clinical radionuclide images.

The effect of picture element (pixel) size on image quality is investigated. Asked simply to state their preference for clinical images displayed with different pixel sizes, observers preferred those with the smallest pixel. Specific perceptual tasks, however, such as abnormality detection, are found to be insensitive to changes in pixel size up to a limit. Interpolation is found to have no effect on perceptual tasks, but 'random interpolation' produced a more pleasing image than simple linear interpolation.
