title: Digital image processing in cephalometric analysis.
abstract: Digital image processing methods were applied to improve the practicability of cephalometric analysis. The individual X-ray film was digitized by the aid of a high resolution microscope-photometer. Digital processing was done using a VAX 8600 computer system. An improvement of the image quality was achieved by means of various digital enhancement and filtering techniques.
