The authors report their experience with a new digital X-ray film processing system, particularly used in the diagnosis of breast, chest, joint and bone pathologic conditions. The technical features of the system are described, and the results are reported which appear as the most significant in mammography, with better visualization of both microcalcifications and small detail images. The above results are due to the possibility of broad contrast variations and of processing basal X-ray images. The possibility is also stressed of improving the diagnostic value of a technically incorrect radiograph, especially if overexposed, with subsequent dose saving.
作者报告了他们使用一种新型数字X射线胶片处理系统的经验，该系统特别用于乳腺、胸部、关节和骨骼病理状况的诊断。文中描述了该系统的技术特征，并报告了在乳腺摄影中最为显著的结果，即微钙化和小细节图像的可视化效果更好。上述结果归因于能够实现广泛的对比度变化以及处理基础X射线图像。文中还强调了提高技术上不正确的X光片（尤其是过度曝光的片子）的诊断价值并节省后续剂量的可能性。
