Description

Direct magnification radiography (size of focal spot of X-ray tube 0,010 mm) visualizes details below the threshold of standard radiography. In combination with high-speed film/screen systems up to a fourfold magnification the exposure of a normal radiogram is not exceeded. In this respect Digital Luminescence Radiography (DLR) with its high speed and image processing capability is ideally suited. (author)
