Film Processing Flashcards
Conversion of latent image to manifest image
Film processing
Types of processing
Manual Processing
Automatic Proccessing
Film is moved from one solution to another by hand
Manual processing
Requires an electromechanical device called the automatic processor
Automati processing
Transportation of of film form one solition to another w/o manual labor
Automatic proccessing
Sequence of events in proccessing a radiograph
Wetting Development Stop Bath Fixing Washing Drying
Swelling of emulsion (15 mins)
Wetting
Manifest image from latent image (5mins/22secs)
Development
Termination of development (30sec)
Stop bath
Removal of remaining silver halide crystals and hardening (15mins /22secs)
Fixing
Removal of excess chemicals (20 mins/20secs)
Washing
Removal of water (30min/26sec)
Drying
Total of manual processing
> 1hr
Total of automatic processing
90 secs
Crystalizing of the foxer solution
Hyporetention
Most important processing solution
Development solution
Is converted to black metallic silver
Sliver halide crystals
Converts latent image to manifest image by breaking down in simpler form
Oxidation/reduction
Hight standard temp is
Increase in OD

Immersion time is _______ to OD
Directly proportional
Density of liquid compared to water
Specific gravity
Measure md by specific gravity
Solution concentration
Use to measure solution concentration
Hydrometer
