?:definition
  • Image digitization systems designed to acquire and digitize dental (typically intraoral) x-ray images for viewing, storing, or printing. The digital imaging system typically consists of an imaging receptor (e.g., a packet with an image plate), an image reader, and a control console. The image is acquired on a photostimulable substance (e.g., a phosphor plate); a reader/digitizer then reads the latent image and converts it into an electrical analog signal using a laser scanner. This signal is then amplified and converted to a digital signal, which is stored and processed by a computer. Dental computed radiography image digitization systems are typically installed as an upgrade to film-based dental radiography systems.
