    Digital radiography offers advantages such as the ability to manipulate images without re-exposing patients, send images to remote locations easily, and require less physical storage. It also allows soft-copy viewing of images.

    Digital radiography offers advantages such as images that can be manipulated without re-exposing patients, sent to remote locations, and require less physical storage than conventional film. It also allows soft-copy viewing.
