Finally, a digital book everyone can understand

I am a radiology instructor that has been searching for a text on digital radiology that presents the necessary information in terminology my students will understand. I am requesting that my department purchases this book for my students. It is the most complete text I have found so far. It is not complete by ASRT requirements however, it comes closer than other publications.

Practical and comprehensive, this resource offers up-to-date coverage of computed radiography, digital radiography, and PACS. It explores the differences between conventional and digital imaging systems and how computed and digital radiography systems fit within the radiology department. State-of-the art information on image acquisition, exposure guidelines, and quality control help you obtain the best possible radiographs. You'll also learn about PACS workstations, archiving, film digitization, image printing, and more.
