Use the Zoom True Size tool to display the image at its actual size, according to available image information.
If you have calibrated the image, the calibration factor is used to determine the actual size.
If not, DICOM pixel spacing determines the actual size, if available (as it typically is with CT and MR images).
Otherwise, if an Estimated Radiographic Magnification Factor (ERMF) is available and enabled, it is taken into account in presenting XA, RF, DX, and MG images at actual size.
