Abstract

The introduction of new digital detector technology for projection radiography created an opportunity to revisit the support for x-ray images in the DICOM standard. A new family of digital x-ray objects has been developed with greater emphasis on the productivity and workflow requirements of PACS and soft copy reading on workstations. The use of these DX objects present new design challenges for acquisition and display systems.
