Abstract
A photothermographic material comprising a photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer on one surface of a support is to be exposed to laser light having a wavelength of less than 700 nm. The silver halide of the emulsion layer has a grain size of 0.01-0.1 .mu.m. A suitable dye is contained in the emulsion layer such that the layer may have an absorbance of 0.3-1.2 at the exposure wavelength. An image containing minimized interference fringes is obtainable.
