Fuji Image Plate Format
Data are normally contained in a pair of files with suffixes .img and .inf.
They should be in the same directory (folder), e.g. foo.inf and foo.img
The .inf file contains crucial information on sensitivity and file size;
if it does not exist this information is guessed at.
Datasqueeze does not attempt to apply any corrections for detector distortions.
The saved data are proportional to the logarithm of the intensity.
Datasqueeze converts these values to a linear scale according to the formula:
cts = 1000 * (res/100)2 *(4000 / S) * 10(L * (v/G - 1/2))
where
v = the value read out
res=resolution
S=sensitivity
L=Latitude
G=Gradation (255 or 65535)
These are not real photon counts, so Poisson statistics are meaningless.
The data are saved in floating point format, so plots should be accurate.
