Description:
The image of an 80 to 90 percent underexposed medical radiograph can be increased to readable density and contrast by autoradiographic image intensification. The technique consists of combining the image silver of the radiograph with a radioactive compound, thiourea labeled with sulfur-35, and then making an autoradiograph from the activated negative.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Askins, B S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Feb 10;199(4329):684-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/625659" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
