[The CR digital radiography system in traditional X-ray studies (according to the materials of the Moscow Regional Clinical Research Institute)].
The basic idea of the author's paper is to attempt to estimate and prove whether it is advisable to use the CR digital radiography system in a multidisciplinary therapeutic institution mainly at the municipal level. The pre-requisites for this were the results of diagnostic studies of different diseases of organs and systems. Emphasis is laid on the specific features of use of this digital system; namely, it can convert several analogue X-ray apparatuses to digital ones and it is more profitable than indirect image numeralization apparatuses and produces lower radiation loads. This all makes the use of these digital systems tempting in traditional X-ray study. A comparatively large material (4237 cases) was used to show the efficiency of the CR digital radiography system in the diagnosis of ENT diseases, osteology, interventional radiology, gastroenterology, pediatrics and to demonstrate a modernized approach to having a solid copy of a digital image, the possibilities of postprocessing that may enhance the validity of existing X-ray symptoms. This all allows the author to recommend that the CR digital radiography systems be used in traditional X-ray study for the diagnosis of various diseases occurring in a multidisciplinary health care facility mainly at municipal and regional levels.
