title: Electronic grids for electrostatic imaging systems.
abstract: Electronic grids have been substituted for conventional grids in an electrostatic imaging system and have been useful in chest radiography. Electronic grids also appear to be useful for clean-up of small amounts of scattered radiation in radiographs of the extremities. More clinical work is needed before a statement about the use of electronic grids for other examinations can be made.
