title: [FCR AC-1: prototype of a new generation of equipment for digital luminescence radiography (DLR)].
abstract: The promising perspective to integrate the project-image-radiography into future picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) failed in medium terms because of high costs. A new generation of compact computed radiography systems (CR) facilitate the entry into storage phosphorus technique for routine application while future PACS-connection is still possible. In August 1990 the Institute of Diagnostic Radiology (University of Düsseldorf) received the first FCR AC-1 in Germany for clinical trials. The acquired experiences expounded by case reports emphasize the diagnostic benefit of this technique. The varying use of expandible FCR AC-1 systems is illustrated.
