Abstract

The present invention provides an X ray film cassette with a permanent marking means for identifying the side of the radiographic film that faced the X ray tube during exposure. Such identification does not require any action by the X ray technologist, eliminating the element of human error. The marking means is comprised of chirally asymmetric X ray opaque and/or light-opaque letters or markings permanently mounted in the film cassette to intersect overlapping portions of an X ray path projected during exposure.
