What is Digital Radiography?

Digital Radiography (DR) replaces conventional film-based X-ray with flat-panel detectors or computed radiography (CR) phosphor plates. It delivers immediate high-resolution images of welds, castings, and pressure vessel components with superior defect sensitivity and digital archiving capabilities.
