Objective. This documentary study evaluates the optimal strategies of digital radiology (DR) in Radiology services in low and medium complexity hospitals in Colombia. Method. Exhaustive bibliographic review where the benefits were identified and compared with analog radiology, it was developed based on a sample of 32 scientific articles in different journals such as Dialnet, SciELO, Scopus, Springer Open, IOP Science. Result. X-ray imaging is a powerful and inexpensive technology that has been widely used in medical diagnosis. The technological importance of X-ray imaging has led to the rapid development of high performance X-ray detectors and associated imaging applications. Therefore, medical imaging services propose effective strategies in the functionality of digital radiology, factors that interfere with the computer system process. Conclusion. Taking into account the technical and fundamental advances of X-ray detectors, the emergence of computed radiography (CR) (DR) has led to technological evolution for obtaining digital X-ray images with more accurate and instantaneous information, while its separate reading mechanism suffers from technical limitations, such as high radiation dose and a non-dynamic image, this allows imaging service providers to be motivated to invest in adequate technology to generate a more optimal use of resources and the service is provided to the patient with high quality.
