Abstract
Systems and methods for x-ray image identification are provided. The systems and methods associate patient information with image information. The method includes acquiring patient information from an identification member external to the digital x-ray detector and storing the patient information within the x-ray detector or on an image. The method further includes associating the patient information with the images acquired by the x-ray imaging system and communicating the acquired images with associated information to a host system when the x-ray detector is connected to the host system.
