The Heel effect is a phenomenon observed in radiography, particularly in X-ray imaging. It refers to the variation in the intensity of the X-ray beam that occurs as it passes through the patient and the imaging system, leading to an uneven distribution of radiation across the film or detector. In simpler terms, the Heel effect means that the X-ray intensity is stronger on one side of the image and weaker on the other side.
