Advanced Technology : Digital Radiography
What is it?
Digital radiography is a form of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are used instead of traditional photographic film.
What are the benefits?
- Digital radiography typically reduces radiation exposure by 75% or more.
- Digital X-ray equipment provides image quality that can surpass traditional film, enabling earlier detection of decay and other problems that might have been missed on film.
- Digital radiography eliminates the need for automatic film processors, taking with it the odor, and wait times.
- Reduce the long processing time of conventional radiography to seconds.
