Digital radiography (CR)
The main difference between digital (computed) radiography and conventional radiographic inspection is the use of digital imaging plates instead of classic X-ray films.
The imaging plates are first exposed and then read out in a scanner. The digital signals are stored in image information so that the images produced can be further processed afterwards.
Advantages of digital (computed) radiography (CR)
- Improved evaluation due to variable contrast settings during computer-aided evaluation
- Reduction of radiation dose due to lower exposure times
- No wet chemical development in the darkroom
- Fast data access at different locations
- Position control of internals (e.g. valve position) and detection of deposits in closed systems
- No stripping of pipelines for testing
- Large wall thickness differences can be imaged with shorter exposure times
- Well suited for recurring inspections and as part of RBI programs
