Abstract
Video signals from radiography equipment (14) are converted to digital form and transferred via a buffer store, (2) to a parallel transfer disc store (3) in real time. These signals can then be read, out again in real time, to a video processor (6) and frame store (8) to provide image enhancement. The enhanced image can then be converted to analog form and displayed on display means (13). The parallel transfer mode of operation of the disc store (3) enables the video signals to be stored in real time. A computer (7) provides control signals to the system.
