What is Digital Radiology?
Hi, I was wondering if anybody could give me some general(and if you have the time)and specific information about the Digital Radiology. Basically what it is, how it’s done, the differences(comparing to analogue) . Thanks alotttt 
Digital Radiology is computerised radiology. The computer is generally programed to focus on the length,depth,thickness and the axis of the picture to be taken. It is similar to digital camera. Digital radiology is extremely useful and non invasive way of diagnosing everything in our body.
Digital Radiology
Digital Radiology is rapidly becoming a well-accepted tool for oral and maxillofacial radiology. A large number of systems for intra- and extra-oral radiography is available at this moment. This course will highlight specific features of each of the technologies and compare them with conventional film based imaging, to support the selection process of the appropriate equipment.
It’s not just the system hardware that is important. Software to help the dentist diagnose is equally important. Digital radiography offers the possibility to extract more information from the radiographic images we use, compared to conventional film images. During the course, participants will have ample time to experience the use of dedicated software for image acquisition, storage and retrieval, as well as computer-aided image analysis and interpretation/diagnosis, including digital subtraction radiography.
The third topic of this course is the implementation of digital radiology in larger organizations, such as a Dental School. The architecture of the infrastructure, integration of sensor systems from different manufacturers into one single image database, seamless coupling with the Patient Management System, authorization levels for different users and system reliability and security are just a few issues that will be addressed.
