[Simplified radiographic slide production utilizing a laser imager and personal computer].
A simple, rapid, inexpensive method for producing radiographic slides is described. By connecting the divided monitor output of a personal computer to a laser imager in the Radiology Department, radiographics and text displayed on the personal computer could be printed out from the laser imager. By selecting a print format of slide size, 12 slide-sized images could be printed on film. In addition, by selecting other print formats, various sized hard-copy images could be obtained. These print-outs could only be produced in black and white, but were convenient for radiology conferences and teaching files.
