When radiation passes through an object it is differentially
absorbed depending upon the materials thickness and any
differing densities
The portions of radiographic film that receive sufficient
amounts of radiation undergo minute changes to produce the
latent image (hidden image)
1. The silver halide crystals are partially converted into
metallic silver to produce the latent image
2. The affected crystals are then amplified by the
developer, the developer completely converts the
affected crystals into metallic silver
3. The radiograph attains its final appearance by fixation

Purpose – to ensure that the activity of the developer and the
developing time required remains constant
Guideline – 1. After 1m2 of film has been developed,
about 400 ml of replenisher needs to be added

take place to avoid bromide streaking Replenishment may be added to maintain
development times and the activity of the developer

Supplied as a liquid concentrated acid mixed to 1 part fixer to 3 parts water
Fixing temperatures for manual processing 20oC
Fixing times are twice the clearing time, clearing time about 3 minutes, fixing time about 6 minutes
During the fixing process agitation should take place to avoid light spots on the radiograph
When fixing times exceed 10 minutes the fixer should be replaced, replenishment is not normally added

G Y After washing in running water the films may be placed in a
wetting agent to reduce surface tension this results in even
drying, preventing black streaky marks on the radiograph
Before drying excess water should be removed with the use
of a squeegee
Drying should take place in a dust free environment
Typical drying times in a drying cabinet 15 minutes
Typical drying times in a drying room 45 minutes Care should be taken not to allow drops of water to appear
on the drying films, this may cause black marks to appear
on the radiograph

Exposure control• For FFD/SFD change
Example:
Calculate new exposure time for FFD = 600 mm
Original exposure at 500mm was 10 min
T1 =(600) 2
(500) 2 X 10 = 14.4 mins
