Experience with digital radiography applied to double contrast arthrography of the knee performed with a photostimulable phosphor plate is reported. The image processing technique used to improve the digital image is described, and some theoretical considerations are discussed. A preliminary comparison is also made between arthrographic images obtained with conventional screen-film systems and the digital system, especially in respect of the image quality and visualization of the soft tissue structures least well demonstrated with conventional arthrography.
