A testing engineer said that during a maintenance operation at a petrochemical plant, digital imaging radiographic inspection was used to shorten the duration of the work, and it proved to be very effective. This engineer is optimistic about digital imaging radiographic inspection; he believes that just as digital cameras have replaced conventional film, digital imaging will inevitably lead to an era without radiographic film. When digital cameras became widespread back then, it was like a glance sweeping through the leaves. Compared to digital cameras, film cameras represent outdated technology. But when applied in industry, film is also a method with relatively mature technical theory. Will the widespread adoption of digital imaging go as smoothly as with consumer cameras?
The biggest obstacle to the widespread use of digital radiography systems is the imaging plate. Currently, these imaging plates are expensive, have a limited lifespan, and most importantly, they cannot be bent like film, which limits the types of objects that can be inspected. If imaging plates made from flexible screens could be available, the adoption of DR and CR technologies would accelerate significantly.
Imaging plates are expensive, and their lifespan is not very long; it’s similar to electric vehicle batteries. All can be overcome with technological progress. But can digital rays really improve progress? It seems that whether it’s digital or film, the processing time is more or less the same. Digital cameras allow one to view photos on a computer, but when it comes to developing photos, the process isn’t much faster than with film
Sure, as long as it can be archived. . . It’s not necessary to use film for archiving; electronic archiving is also fine. It also saves you from the eye-straining review lights. . .

Back then, there weren’t so many PS effects either; now it’s impossible to see real people, and no matter how pretty the photos are, you can’t trust them. . . I’m not very familiar with the field of digital imaging. . . Let’s use some jargon; just listen to it. . . :lol:lol:lol
It seems that the film for CR can be bent, while the film for DR cannot be bent
