"Ghosting" occurs when a faint residual image remains from a previously displayed image. This can be caused by a mismatch between the monitor's refresh rate and the video signal.
These artifacts can obscure critical anatomy of interest, requiring patient removal of jewelry and objects before imaging. 2. Computing (Symantec/Altiris Ghost) Ghost image
Tools like Ghost32.exe or Ghost64.exe are used to verify the integrity of these images to detect corruption, as described in the Broadcom support article. 3. Display and Optics
Common culprits are earrings, metallic necklaces, hair clips, or dense anatomical structures like the cervical spine. In computer management, a "Ghost image" (often with a

A "ghost image" is a generic term for a faint, often unintentional, secondary image that appears near a primary one. Its meaning varies significantly depending on the context—ranging from dental X-ray artifacts to monitor defects and computing backups. 1.
