Abstract
Photosensitive silver halide grains that are thin tabular grains having an average grain thickness of less than 0.3 microns provide advantages, including improved spectral sensitization and image tone, in a photothermographic material comprising photosensitive silver halide and a photosensitive silver halide processing agent. An image is developed in such an exposed photothermographic material by heating the material, such as to a temperature within the range of about 90.degree. C. to about 180.degree. C.
