Title: Dental radiology: capture your image. Author: Brocklebank LM. Journal: Dent Update; 1998 Apr; 25(3):94-6, 98, 100-2. PubMed ID: 9791202. Abstract: The use of radiographs to assist in diagnosis and treatment in dentistry relies upon the acquisition of good-quality images. A number of stages involved in this acquisition, and various regulations and guidelines, must be taken into account when selecting equipment, accessories, exposure factors and processing facilities.
