✦ Synopsis

A video based scanning system had been developed for processing DNA autoradiographs (T. Catterick and J.R. Russell, Lab. Microcomput. (1991), in press). Before the scanner was used in casework it was necessary to assess its performance. Test DNA samples containing fragments (alleles) of known kilobase size were run against the primary (Amersham, U.K.) calibration ladder. The resulting autoradiographs were processed with the new video scanner and also using manual, ruler based measurements. Comparisons were then made between these experimental results and also with the known kilobase values quoted by the supplier of the test samples.

We describe a semi-automatic, computerized method of quantitative densitometry for regional analysis of whole brain autoradiographs. The technique features menu-driven software and verbal prompting for data via a speech synthesizer. Advantages over manual methods include an 80% reduction in the time

The widespread growth of interventional angiographic procedures has expanded the use of X-ray video systems. Reduced radiation exposure to the patient and staff has been recently reported by implementing a new pulsed progressive scanning video system. We have shown that this system, which enables th
