Abstract:
A prototype system for archiving and transmitting digitized dental radiographs is described. The system uses a CCD video camera, IBM compatible personal computer with a frame-grabber and a high resolution VGA monitor. All archived images were compressed lossless by a factor of about 3. Digitized radiographs were archived together with their exposure data and assembled in an examination with a unique identifier and date of examination, together with the patient's history and reason for radiological examination. A radiological report with a list of differential diagnoses could be attached. Each examination could contain 50 digitized radiographs which could be converted to a tagged image file (TIFF) and printed halftone with a laser printer. Users of the system could receive examinations from the network-server and share the images in a local area network.

X-ray Imaging
Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
