title: [Documentation of medical images using a laser camera].
abstract: For today's and tomorrow's high developed imaging systems CT, MR, DSA, NM, US, DR we need equally highly developed recording equipment to produce high-grade quality "hard copies" at the end of the image transfer chain. For this reason we present a new laser image recording technique with Laser Imager and its operational principle. The Video Imagers (multiformat cameras) used until now are no longer up to date due to their disadvantages for imaging documentation of high-resolution imaging systems. The direct exposure of a single-emulsion-silver-halogenide transparency film with laser light, produces low-noise distortion-free and homogeneous documentation images. The size of the matrix of 4000 x 5000 pixel and 12 bit image depth guarantees the use of the Laser Imager also for future imaging systems with a higher size matrix than is now usual. The modulated accessories such as Multi-Modality Unit (MMU) and Multi-Console Laser Switch (MCLS) guarantees a flexible and more economic use of the Laser Imager.
