  • Title: The consistent image--how to improve the quality of dental radiographs: 2. The image receptor, processing and darkroom/film handling.
    Author: Carmichael F.
    Journal: Dent Update; 2006; 33(1):39-40, 42. PubMed ID: 16512097.
    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: The two papers in this series aim to discuss quality assurance as applied to dental radiography. 'The lonising Radiation Regulations' emphasize the need for quality assurance programmes wherever radiography is being undertaken. A written quality assurance programme is good practice. This second paper deals with the image receptor, processing and darkroom/film handling. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Utilization of digital imaging will eliminate processing and darkroom errors but may introduce new categories of error.
