Abstract
The inherent features in xerography of wide latitude, edge enhancement, and reduction of the off fulcrum plane blur make it a desirable recording modality to use in conjunction with tomography. Xerotomographic images appear superior to those of film tomograms. The principal obstacle to routine use of xerotomography in this area is the high patient exposure. Attempts to increase the sensitivity of the xerographic system thereby reducing patient exposure, are being investigated.Keywords
