My friend had got some serious problem in his abdomen and he want to send his X-rays to U.S ...Now the question is that how can he send that digitally ...Can X-Ray Be scanned?
Ive tried it.. You can scan them... BTW, why don.t you try them yourself.. You've got nothing to lose...NagpurDaMunda said:My friend had got some serious problem in his abdomen and he want to send his X-rays to U.S ...Now the question is that how can he send that digitally ...Can X-Ray Be scanned?
No mate.. No special requirements for scanning an X ray.. Just closing the scanner cover will provide a white background, whch gives the xray the necessary contrast.. Try it yourself and find out...!!cybertooth said:Yes X-Ray can be scanned but you need a transperancy scanner for the same because it is like a transperancy film which can be viewed with backlighting while a scanner projects light from the front hence even if you get a image it is worhtless from diagnostic point of view.
It is better if you can take a close up picture of the xray with a digital camera . arrange for a backlight preferably white light eg use a tube light or a cfl put a white translucent paper in front of it an place the x-ray on it now you are all set ,the other option is go to a doctor and use his x-ray view box. if the xray is from a diagnostic lab which has a digital X-ray ask them for a copy on a CD
