[Transrenal and transcorporal immediate roentgen imaging using intensifying screens]

Area of Science:

• Radiology
• Medical Imaging Technology

Background:

• Single sheet films offer advantages in X-ray diagnostics.
• Polaroid films have been utilized in X-ray imaging.

Purpose of the Study:

• To evaluate the efficacy of combining Polaroid films with X-ray amplifying sheets.
• To improve X-ray diagnostic techniques by reducing exposure time and enhancing image quality.

Main Methods:

• Utilized Polaroid films (type 52) in conjunction with X-ray amplifying sheets (type Titan-D).
• Employed a combination of Polaroid 57 films and "Siemens-Special-Sheets" for transcorporeal imaging.

Main Results:

• Reduced X-ray exposure time to 0.2 seconds with the Polaroid 52 and Titan-D combination.
• Achieved excellent quality images of kidney stones, implants, and bones using Polaroid 57 and "Siemens-Special-Sheets".

Conclusions:

• The combination of specific Polaroid films and X-ray amplifying sheets represents a significant advancement in X-ray diagnostics.
• This technique allows for reduced exposure times and high-quality imaging of various anatomical structures and foreign bodies.
