Abstract:
Digital radiography of the thorax can, now be substituted to conventional chest radiography. Computed radiography with phosphor plates and the new selenium detector are emphasized. The major image processing are explained. Successively the main other methods of digital radiography are described: scanning equalization radiography, laser-digitized radiography and multiwire proportional chambers. Then the advantages and the drawbacks of chest computed radiography are extensively reviewed.
