Applying the New ADA Quality Assurance Standard to Digital Intraoral Radiographic Systems

摘要

This article is intended to describe the appropriate quality assurance (QA) methods for digital intraoral radiographic systems in accordance with ANSI/ADA Standard 1094. This article goes step by step through the digital imaging chain (the intraoral X-ray generator, the image receptor and acquisition software and the image display device), so the reader can achieve a complete understanding of what is required to successfully implement a comprehensive QA protocol within their own practice.
