A form of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors (digital image capture device) are used instead of traditional photographic film.

Advantages include time efficiency through bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transfer and enhance images.

Also, less radiation can be used to produce an image of similar contrast to conventional radiography.See: Sensor (Digital X-ray), Sensor (CBCT), Intraoral digital X-ray sensor
