Digitization

Digitization of radiographs

Our Laboratory has an Array Corporation 2905 HD radiographic digitizer operating in the 0 – 4.7 blackening range and 50µm resolution. This allows digitizing in the highest quality class DS9 according to EN 14096. Equipped with precision optics and helium-neon laser, the radiographic film scanner digitizes films with speed, accuracy and reliability.

Digitizing radiographs is the process of converting traditional analog radiographs (radiographic films) into digital form. This allows radiographic images to be more easily stored, shared, analyzed and archived. Digitization also allows remote consultation of results and quick access to the materials needed.

What is the process of digitizing radiographs?

Scanning – Radiograms are scanned using specialized radiographic scanners that convert the images on the films into digital files.
Storage – Digital radiographs are saved in computer file format, allowing them to be stored on hard drives, servers or in the cloud.
Sharing – Digital files can be easily shared with others, for example, for consultation or analysis, without having to send physical radiographs.
Analysis – Digital images can be analyzed using computer software, allowing for more accurate and faster detection of defects and discrepancies.
Advantages of digitizing radiographs:
Space saving – Digital radiographs take up much less space than physical radiographic films.
Durability – Digital images do not degrade over time as physical films do.
Easy access – Digital radiographs are easily accessible to multiple users simultaneously, speeding up the analysis and consultation process.
Security – Digital copies can be easily protected against loss or damage.
Environmental protection – Digitization reduces the use of consumables such as films and chemicals, which is good for the environment.
Speed -The speed of analysis of digital radiographs is faster than traditional methods.
