Overview

What is AGFA DRYSTAR DT5B?

AGFA DRYSTAR DT5B is Agfa HealthCare's second-generation Direct Digital dry greyscale medium for high-quality medical hardcopies. It is heat-sensitive rather than light-sensitive, which helps guarantee low fog, high contrast and excellent image stability.

DT5B gives clear, sharp greyscale images similar to wet laser film while keeping the advantages of dry technology: no wet processing, no darkroom, no chemicals and fully recyclable packaging.
