What is the difference between a Carestream RVG 5200 & 6200?

In dentistry, direct USB X-ray sensors and phosphor plate systems are used to capture digital dental X-rays. Direct sensors are faster, more convenient and durable, while phosphor plate systems may produce higher quality images but take longer and require special handling. The choice of technology depends on the practice's needs and preferences. The RVG 6200 captures higher resolution images (20 lp/mm) compared to the RVG 5200 (16 lp/mm).
