Abstract

Many new approaches and modifications of existing non-silver halide diagnostic imaging systems have been described in recent years. The basic concepts of some of these new developments are discussed, particularly with regard to their potential and limitations as future imaging systems. These systems include electroradiographic, thermographic, electronic, and solid state physical techniques. In addition, some comments on the application of modern image processing technologies are made. In spite of the fact that barely any of these systhems and ideas have reached commercial status, this review is offered to generate awareness on the present state of developmental efforts.
