Digital radiology

Equipment

Type :2 Digital tables with plane sensor

Supplier :Samsung/Platinum

Technology

X-ray equipment provided with a digital plane sensor associated with a computer system. When X-rays are emitted, they pass through the structures of the examined area and will be intercepted by the plane sensor. The image is created by the computer conversion of the radiation into a multitude of points whose color goes from black to white depending on the intensity of the radiation.

The greater the amount of rays reaching the plane sensor, the more the created image will appear darker (the bone that blocks the rays significantly appears clear while the lungs that let many rays appear black).

What is the contribution of digital radiology ?

X-ray allows to analyze the possible modifications of a structure.

The contribution of scanning is important because it provides an editable image on a screen.
