Die Thoraxaufnahme auf der Intensivstation als digitale Lumineszenzradiographie (DLR)

Abstract
To date there have been occasional reports on the technical aspects and accounts of the clinical use of digital radiography. There has, however, been a lack of reports on the clinical use of the technique in a large number of patients. We report our experience concerning more than 1250 chest x-rays on patients in intensive care; these have been carried out since December 1987, using a digital system. The method produces improvement in the radiological diagnosis of patients in intensive care; this is due to avoidance of incorrect exposures, the ability to obtain lateral films, consistent exposures and the ability to manipulate and store images electronically.
