Q

used in the cassete to produce more light

A

intensifying screen (.4 mm)

Q

intensifying screens decrease

A

mAs required thus decrease dose

single film exposure =

continual glow =

A

fluoresce (single)

luminesce (glow)

Q

color of emitted light must match light sensitivity of film

A

spectral matching
