Flatbed scanners and digital cameras produce images that many specialists accept as diagnostic-quality. With the dramatic improvement in resolution, digital cameras now provide an opportunity for easy entry into telemedicine at a reasonable price. Listed below are equipment recommendations for digital cameras, flatbed scanners, film scanners and Radiograph Digital Converters. We have hands-on experience with all these technologies, as well as many others not listed. • Digital Cameras Prices for digital cameras offering high-quality image resolution have fallen dramatically over the past few years. It has never been less expensive to produc
