Abstract
A radiographic system for obtaining a visible radiation image by use of a stimulable phosphor sheet including a spot shot apparatus having a transport system for transporting the stimulable sheets from a supply magazine to a receiving magazine through a park and exposure station at which radiation is directed to the sheets. A plurality of the sheets are stacked in a supply magazine with the side of the sheets opposite the side having the phosphor layer facing upward. The sheets are sequentially transported to the exposure station for a radiographic imaging, and then to a receiving magazine by a transport system. The transport system has arcuate portions to cause the unexposed sheet feed from the supply magazine to turn with the phosphor layer thereof facing the radiation source during feed of the unexposed sheet to the exposure station and to cause the exposed sheet advanced from the exposure station to turn with the side thereof opposite the phosphor layer facing up during feed of the exposed sheet to the receiving magazine.
