AI Article Synopsis
- Xeroradiography is an imaging technique that uses a xeroradiographic copying process to produce images from diagnostic x-rays, unlike traditional halide film methods that require chemical processing and darkrooms.
- Despite initial promise in the field of endodontic imaging, xeroradiography has seen limited research and development, leading to a stagnation of its potential use.
- The study aims to reevaluate xeroradiographic techniques to determine their effectiveness as a roentgenographic imaging system in dental applications.
Article Abstract
Various methods have been introduced for obtaining radiographs. Xeroradiography which is a method of imaging uses the xeroradiographic copying process to record images produced by diagnostic x-rays. It differs from halide film technique in that it involves neither wet chemical processing nor the use of dark room. Literature on this subject is scarce. After an initial promising beginning, this imaging method, once thought to hold the key to endodontic imaging, got stagnated. A revisit of this promising endodontic imaging system would therefore be appropriate. The purpose of this study was to review xeroradiographic technique as a roentgenographic imaging system.
