Hello contributors, I think that the information about the machines used for digitalize those images is important, can u get these information, plz?

*you and *please. We are not texting each other.

This information is rare to find for chest X-rays. Also, it is not clear it matters. Acquisition parameters would make more sense and I don't even see this info in the DICOM headers to X-rays. It is more important for CTs.
Do you have any references saying that chest X-ray algorithms perform differently given the machine/acquisition parameters?
