iOrtho offers Digital Radiography (DR) in its Manhattan and Staten Island locations. DR is the most sophisticated form of x-ray imaging where digital X-ray sensors are used to capture the image. Following capture, the image may be manipulated using the power of software to achieve a variety of powerful diagnostic and therapeutic advantages:

• maximize clarity and resolution of the image
• magnify areas of interest
• stitch multiple images together to acquire a panoramic view
• availability of the image to template orthopedic implants and/or create a surgical plan
• digital storage of the image for easy access and for comparison along a timeline

Other advantages include:

• Less radiation can be used to produce an image of similar contrast to conventional radiography
• Time efficiency through bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transfer and enhance images
• Immediate image preview and availability
• A wider dynamic range which makes it more forgiving for over- and under-exposure
• The ability to apply special image processing techniques that enhance the overall display of the image.
