[Digital radiography. Equipment technology and initial clinical results of digital angiography with an electronic universal work station].
Using a prototype of an electronic, universal examination unit equipped with a special x-ray TV installation, spotfilm exposures and digital angiographies with high spatial resolution and wide-range contrast could be made in the clinic for the first time. With transvenous contrast medium injection, the clinical results of digital angiography show excellent image quality in the region of the carotids and renal arteries as well as the arteries of the extremities. The electronic series exposures have an image quality almost comparable to the quality obtained with cutfilm changers in conventional angiography. There are certain limitations due to the input field of the 25 cm x-ray image intensifier used. In respect of the digital angiography imaging technique, the electronic universal unit is fully suitable for clinical application.
