    AbstractUsing a hand scanner, radiographs were scanned into a personal computer (PC) for storage and viewing. These images were of superior or similar quality to x-ray photographs published in textbooks and journals. This represents a simple and inexpensive way for emergency physicians to store x-ray files electronically for instant access from a desktop or laptop computer. This optimizes emergency medicine teaching when radiographic studies are involved. Identical copies of the image files can be made and distributed for viewing on other PCs. The PC is a new tool that will improve our ability to organize our educational resource materials. Multimedia methods represent a new way to present and distribute audiovisual educational materials at a desktop.
