Abstract
Interface surfaces of mechanical system components may comprise one or more radiographic markers. A radiographic marker may comprise a marker material having a radiopacity greater than a radiopacity of a parent material of a mechanical system component that comprises that radiographic marker. Mechanical systems comprising one or more radiographically-marked components may be radiographically imaged to determine wear, damage, and/or other conditions.
