An image forming method and its apparatus are disclosed. The method comprises exposing a light-sensitive silver halide photographic material having a support and hydrophilic colloid layers provided on both sides of the support and developing the exposed material with a developing solution without immersing it in the developing solution. The apparatus comprises (a) a pair of rollers for transporting the material in a downward direction and (b) a pair of nozzles for feeding the developing solution to both sides of the material, the nozzles being provided above the rollers.

Image forming method and apparatus

An X-ray radiography system comprising divided fan beam scanning device, feed-back the beam regulator and a silver halide photosensitive material having a covering power not less than 45 which is capable to diagnose wide range of photodensity area at one time exposure for minimizing the radiation dose is disclosed.

X-ray radiographic system

A light-sensitive silver halide photographic material for X-ray photography characterized in that the material has the characteristic curve whose gamma between optical densities of 0.50 and 1.50 is 2.7 to 3.3 and gamma between optical densities of 2.00 and 3.00 is 1.5 to 2.5, when processed by use of the following developer:

Light-sensitive silver halide photographic material for X-ray photography

A silver halide light-sensitive photographic material for radiographic use comprising a transparent support and a silver halide emulsion layer on both sides thereof such that the blue light transmission density difference between the support and the silver halide layer is .gtoreq.0.35 and .ltoreq.0.60.

Silver halide light-sensitive photographic material for radiographic use

A silver halide X-ray photosensitive material has a support bearing thereon a silver halide emulsion layer. The layer has at least three kinds of silver halide emulsions whose photographic characteristics are substantially different from each other. Out of at least three kinds of the silver halide emulsions, at least one of them is a monodisperse emulsion E.sub.1 and at least another one of them is a polydisperse emulsion E.sub.2.

Silver halide X-ray photosensitive material

A photosensitive silver halide emulsion comprising photosensitive silver halide grains which essentially consists of monodisperse globular-shaped grains. The grains may be prepared by adding a silver halide solvent to a silver halide emulsion containing monodisperse silver halide grains of regular crystal habit at a time between the complete formation of the monodisperse silver halide grains of regular crystal habit and before commencement of chemical sensitization.

Photosensitive silver halide emulsion

A silver halide photographic material comprising a base having formed thereon a silver halide emulsion layer substantially made of two or more monodisperse emulsions having different average grain sizes in the range of from 0.2 to 3.0 .mu.m is disclosed. The grain size distribution curve of the silver halide grains in said emulsion layer has two or more peaks, and the distance between the highest peak and the second highest peak is at least 0.3 .mu.m.
