[The automation of the processing and interpreting of teleroentgenograms].

Demonstrates the advantages of computer preparation of teleroentgenograms (TRG) and their layout and deciphering for subsequent roentgenocephalometric analysis. Using a full-page scanner, TRG is recorded in a computer, which improves the image by transforming the histogram brightness and then superimposes this image on the contour of the initial image. The quality of layout is improved by a larger (at least two times) image on the monitor and anthropometric points marked strictly parallel to the abscissa and ordinate. All this 50 times improves the accuracy of measurements on the prepared TRG and thus increases the value of roentgenocephalometric analysis.
