Presentation describes current system characterization methods and potential improvements, concluding that (a) full understanding of complete edge spread function is critical for accurate density reconstruction, (b) shot-to-shot reproducibility is critical, (c) optical scatter must be separated from radiation scatter, and (d) detailed system understanding coupled with flexible detector geometry pays dividends in ability to optimize for any given experimental campaign.
