- UAB is developing a semi-automated image analysis tool to identify and mark digital radiography indications. This will serve as the baseline tool for development of a tool that would be capable of rating digital radiographs and verify relationship between mechanical properties and maximum indication length. This maximum indication length will be determined using the radiography test (RT) standard developed by University of Iowa.
