Digital X-Ray is a modern imaging technique that captures images of the inside of the body, such as bones and organs, in a digital format. It is faster, clearer, and often safer compared to traditional X-rays.
How Does Digital X-Ray Work?
Instead of using traditional X-ray films, digital X-rays use a digital detector to capture the image.
When X-rays pass through the body, the digital detector converts them into electronic signals.
These signals are processed by a computer to create detailed images instantly.
Doctors can view, enhance, and store these images on a computer, making diagnosis quicker and easier.
Advantages of Digital X-Ray
Faster results: Images are available immediately.
Better image quality: Allows for clearer and more detailed pictures.
Lower radiation exposure: Uses less radiation than traditional X-rays.
Easy storage and sharing: Images can be stored digitally and shared easily with other healthcare providers.
Environmentally friendly: No chemicals or film processing needed.
