Certain embodiments of the present invention provide for an imaging system
including an index value source, a transmitter, a receiver, and an image
processing component. The index value source is capable of generating an
index value. The index value source is part of and/or included in an
imaging system detector. The transmitter is in communication with the
index value source. The receiver is in communication with the
transmitter. The image processing component is in communication with the
receiver. The image processing component includes a lookup table. The
image processing component is capable of generating a pixel value based
at least in part on an index value and a lookup table. The pixel value
has a bit-width greater than the index value. In an embodiment, the
receiver is in wireless communication with the transmitter.
