X-Ray Sensitometric Characteristics of Systems for General Radiography with Automatic Film Processing Using Various Chemicals

  • Published:
Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

The ISO method was used to study the X-ray sensitometric characteristics of blue and green screen/film systems for general radiography, including blue-sensitive and orthochromatic films most widely used in Russia. Speed, average gradient, and minimum and maximum density values were compared for films automatically processed using chemicals from three manufacturers.
