Course Description
At the end of this course, the students should be able to:
1. identify different types of computed Radiography systems;
2. describe the instrumentation and explain the operation and usage of digital processors to
obtain high quality images;
3. describe post processing options available, artefacts and archiving facilities; and
4. provide reasons for environmental pollution from chemical processing of images and suggest
conservation methods for amelioration.
