Images
The selected images were not manipulated after they were taken. All images were exported as JPEG images. When using JPEG compression, there is some loss of detail in all of the images. Please note that the Schick and Vet-X systems export JPEG files of a smaller size than the other systems. This means that image quality of the Schick and Vet-X systems were probably more adversely affected by choosing this format for the files. This effect will be most apparent if the images are magnified. This disparity in file size will be eliminated next year when the DICOM 3.0 format will be utilized for this test. All of the digital dental systems have a large variety of enhancements that can be used to manipulate the images after they are viewed on the screen. None of the images presented here were manipulated after they were on the screen.
