I dont specifically know what chemical it is, but x-ray film developing solution is used to develop an x-ray. Just like with photographs, an x-ray is a picture taken on a big piece of film (it is loaded into the board you stand in front of to get an x-ray), and then the 'picture' is snapped, and the film has to be developed in a dark room, where you dip the x-ray in a developing solution for a few minutes and then you can see the picture (in this case your bones). before an x-ray is developed its just a big black piece of film, and just like with a camera, if you expose it to light before it has been developed, it is ruined. hope this answered your question

Why does xray developer chemicals turn black?
means theres a problem
In developing film negatives what does the developer do to the silver halides?
When developing film what does the developer do to develop the film?
What is xray film emulsions sensitive to?
X Ray film emulsions are sensitive to light.
How do can you use developer in a sentence?
I can't wait to get this roll of film into the developer.This property will be sold to the developer with the highest bid.
How do you explain an x ray of a back that has a hand on it as well?
If the patient's hands are in the field of the xray they will appear on the film, so even if they are on the stomach they will appear as if they are over or near the spine. If someone has helped immobilise the patient for the xray, then their hands may appear on the film.
What is the optimum developer time and temperature for manual film processing?
Temperature has been pretty much standardized at 60F or 20C, but time depends on film ISO speed, developer dilution rates and developer type/product. Consult the product guides for the ISO being used.
Do x-ray films fade?
Everything fades. However, old Xray films are the same as black-and-white photographic film. They last 100 years plus and counting. There is a big business in converting Xray films to computer files and then harvesting the film for the silver.
Does a back xray show adrenal glands?
If by XRAY, you mean a plain film, which is to say a modality that uses Rontgen radiation, then, no. The adrenals need either CT, ultrasound or MRI to visualize the adrenals.
What will be the outcome if an exposed film is first fixed then developed then washed?
Short Answer: You will get a clear piece of film. You will also ruin your film developer and will not be able to use that chemical again.About FixerFixing the film is a permanent process, once a film is fixed, it remains the same even if you have to pass it through the developer thereafter.This is what happensFixer removes all of the light-sensitive emulsion on the film that was not exposed to light and then developed. So you will end up with a clear piece of film because nothing was developed first.Film that is exposed to light only creates a latent image. That image will not appear until it has been developed in a chemical bath, which "hardens" the image. The function of fixer is to remove all parts of the emulaion that have not been developed (hardened). Areas not developed become clear film. If you fixed the film first, you will remove all of the emulsion and there will be nothing left to develop.You will also ruin the developer chemicals if you first use fixer and follow it up with a developer in the process. These chemicals will have to be trashed and not used again. This is a shame, because when used properly, both film developer and fixer can be re-used several times.
What is plain xray?
It will depend on who says it, but often "plain x-ray" or "plain film" images are used to describe procedures using xray excluding things like CT or Fluoroscopy. If a single images is taken it will usually be considered "plain".
What are x ray developer and fixer?
You are talking about an X-ray negative . . . it is exactly the same as a photograph negative, but instead of using light to expose the negative film like an everyday camera, it uses an X-ray machine to expose the negative film. In either case, you develop the film with, well, developer, rinse it to stop the developer, then bathe it in a bath of acetic acid (like vinegar) to make the image not be sensitive to xrays (or light) anymore.
What is photographic developer used for?
There are two basic kinds of developers: film, and paper. You "develop" exposed film into a negative through a developer bath. Then you typically print the negative (either directly onto paper as a proof, or to an enlarged size - 4x6, 5x7, 8x10, etc. with an enlarger, by exposing the paper to light that is filtered through the negative, creating the positive that you then "develop" in a developer bath. Once the film and/or paper is developed, you then rise off the developer in a water bath and to stop any residual continuing development then put the film or paper into a "fixer" bath, and then water to eliminate the fixer, and then to dry. Color film and paper require more complicated, but similar processes. Old fashioned X-ray film is similar. There are many different manufacturers and formulas, that can vary with the kinds of film and paper you use. ******** To the point of the question: developer acts chemically on the "latent" image that cannot be seen until the silver salts (silver halide crystals) sensitized by light are converted to black metallic silver. The developer can distinguish between crystals that were and were not exposed (sensitized) to light.
