[Digital method of assessing bone radiographs].
The computerized method of bone radiographs assessment has been presented. The radiographs were taken by standard technique with the aluminum wedge on the film and known exposition parameters as energy, time and the distance between the source and the subject. Specially designed software served to evaluate the intensity of film darkening. The method may be particularly useful for quantitative assessment of the callus in the healing phase of fractured bone. It may also be an alternative method (as cheaper one) to QCT or DPX in bone density evaluation in patients with metabolic bone diseases.
