'Direct' radiography implies that the other form is 'indirect' radiography which is indeed the implicit connotation. With digital radiography the results of the X-ray are immediate as the system is connected directly to the computer. In indirect radiography (also called computed radiography) a phosphor plate is used, become radiated, and then are scanned following this exposure to see that X-ray's outcome.
