title: Digital chest radiography: clinical aspects.
abstract: Technical development puts the completely digital radiology department within reach. Presently available systems have slightly inferior spatial resolution than film/screen systems. This is well compensated for by image processing. In the future, the digital radiology department working environment will be different. Systems should be designed that conform as much as possible to radiologists' present way of working to facilitate transition to the new system and avoid unnecessary stress.
