Before now our only option when taking an x-ray was to visit the patient on site, shoot the film, transport the film cassette to the lab, develop the film, then transport the film to the Radiologist for reading. Now, the digital era has brought us an exciting new technology called digital radiography. This new technology greatly streamlines the entire process and in turn we provide a greatly improved efficiency for our clients.
With digital radiography, we use an image receptor capable of storing a digital image instead of using film cassettes. It is faster because images are available immediately for viewing, with no development step in between, eliminating the need for transport of the film, development and additional transport of the film to the Radiologist. Similar to using your digital camera where you are able to see your photos instantly instead of waiting to get them developed. Digital radiography is an advanced technology that speeds up treatment and helps make the most accurate and efficient diagnosis of your patients condition.
