Does Computer Radiography ( CR Cassette) Use Less Radiation Doses

refers to how the image is processed not radiation
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
The computed radiography refers to how the image is processed.
It still uses the conventional normally used imaging plates but the image is processed differently
Instead of a film which is then taken into a special room to be processed, it is done differently.
The imaging plate is stored in a cassette and placed under the body.
Information is basically passed through a scanner so that it can then be viewed on a computer screen.
It does not relate to how much radiation a person is exposed to, it refers to how the image is processed and developed
The level of radiation does not vary. How the image is processed does
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
