QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE ANSWER
Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) - Answer-moving or still images that are made by,
or assisted by, computers.
Pixels - Answer-dots that combine to create an image on a computer monitor.
Resolution - Answer-how sharp an image appears on screen
Spatial resolution - Answer-Use of intensifying screens lowers spatial resolution
compared with direct exposure radiographs.
Expressed by the number of line pairs per millimeter.
Bitmap images - Answer-Images created using a grid of small squares called pixels
Vector images - Answer-Use mathematic equations and geometric elements (points,
lines, and shapes)

computer to be used for drawing.
3D Animation - Answer-Uses 3 dimensions of movement, has more depth and realistic
appearance
