title: Xerographic applications in neuroradiology. A comparison with conventional film imaging.
abstract: The capacity of electrostatic imaging for edge enhancement and wide latitude recording can improve visualization in neuroradiologic studies using low differential absorption contrast agents. Gas myelography and pneumoencephalography show the most satisfactory improvement in visualization. Tomography combined with xerography enhances definition further, but with gas myelography, especially in the thoracic region, plain xeroradiographic definition is frequently diagnostic.
