A method and apparatus for displaying an image generated by at least one detector of an imaging unit are disclosed herein. The method includes creating a pixel map identifying locations of bad pixels in an array of pixels in the image detected by the at least one detector, linking the pixel map to the image, and providing for selective display of the pixel map. Bad pixels behave from a group including pixels which do not respond electrically and pixels which are statistically different from surrounding pixels in the array of pixels. The apparatus includes an imaging unit for generating x-rays which pass through a body of interest, at least one detector unit for detecting the x-rays, and a processing unit for identifying bad pixels within the detected image.       Recently Added Patents Scaleable status tracking of multiple assist hardware threads Systems and methods for identifying malicious domains using internet-wide DNS lookup patterns In-store marketing sign Information processing apparatus and method Display apparatus, control method thereof, and program Video-recording reservation management apparatus, method, program, and system Crosslinked core/shell polymer particles   Randomly Featured Patents Solid state light illuminator Light intercepting frame of lens Operation apparatus controller and surgery system Sterically hindered polyether polyols as chlorine bleach stable surfactants Companding of voice signal for simultaneous voice and data transmission Manual multiple size can crusher Dual work function recessed access device and methods of forming Expression plasmids Storage battery with laminated battery element Theodolite tangent screw system © 2006-2008 PatentGenius.
