Digital radiography
Updates to Article Attributes
Body
was changed:
Digital radiography is based on the use of discrete values in comparison to conventional radiography which uses analogue/continuous values. It removes the requirement of dark room procedures.
Types
-
computed radiography (CR)
- uses photostimulable phosphor plates in cassettes
-
direct digital radiography (DDR)
- no cassette
- uses direct or indirectflat panel detectors or charge coupled devices (CCDs)
- can be indirect or direct
