Assessing chest radiographic quality and the influence of COVID‐19 pathology: the Australian experience

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the impact of COVID‐19 pathology on the quality of chest X‐rays (CXRs) using an established European Guideline tool for image quality assessment. Results indicate that CXRs with COVID‐19 features have lower technical quality scores compared to non‐COVID‐19 images, though their diagnostic value remains unaffected.
