Digital X-ray design resources and block diagram
X-ray: Medical/Dental
Digital X-ray imaging is revolutionizing diagnostic radiology. With conventional X-ray systems, the signal degradation
from each component consumers more than 60% of the original X-ray signal, causing degradation even if individual components are
optimized. As a result, typically less than 40% of the original image information is available to produce an image.
By adding a digital detector to digital X-ray imaging, it is possible to capture more than 80% of the original image
information and use a wide range of post-processing tools to further improve images for both direct and indirect digital X-ray systems.
Other technology advantages that semiconductor technology is enabling include:
- Reduced diagnosis time by eliminating photographic processing
- Reduced costs by eliminating photographic processing chemicals
- Processing image data that highlights regions of interest and suppresses irrelevant information
- Combines image data with other pertinent patient RIS/HIS system information
- Quickly transmits information anywhere over network connections
- Archives all desired information in a minimal space
