The General Scanning model LD2800 laser film digitizer is intended to
create copies of medical images stored on film when connected to a laser
imager. It is intended for use in making copies of conventional x-ray films
as well as films produced by imagers that fall in the ranges specified for
size and optical density range detailed in the specifications.

The digitizer utilizes laser light to scan the film, extracts the image data by
measuring the transmitted light, converts it into digital form, and transmits
the data over a digital link. A laser imager may then be used to print a
copy of the original image.

The LD2800 contains the scanning laser and detection module, a film
transport, and electronics to convert and transmit the image data and
provide control and calibration. | | | {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services.
