What does DR screening mean?

DR screening is one of the latest, most efficient and most accurate methods in digital radiology examination. This kind of examination uses digital X-ray imaging technology to scan and image diagnose various parts of the human body, and is used to diagnose and monitor various diseases. DR screening mainly includes technologies such as digital X-ray photography, computer-aided diagnosis, and image information management, which can effectively improve diagnostic efficiency and accuracy.

DR screening is widely used in clinical imaging diagnosis of various parts, such as head, chest, abdomen, pelvis, limbs, etc. Especially in cancer diagnosis and treatment, DR screening has extremely important application value. For some cancers that are difficult to judge and have early lesions, DR screening can detect them in time, allowing patients to receive treatment as early as possible and improving the cure rate.

Compared with traditional X-ray examination, DR screening has the advantages of higher detection accuracy, faster examination speed and easier storage and transmission. At the same time, the radiation dose used in DR screening is low, causing relatively little radiation damage to the human body, making it safer and more reliable. However, DR screening is relatively high in terms of examination costs, and the investment and maintenance costs of equipment are also relatively high, which has become one of the main factors that may limit its application.
