■ Envelope Packing with Integral Lead Oxide Screens<br />

The main feature <strong>of</strong> this type <strong>of</strong> packaging is that the sheet <strong>of</strong> film is an<br />

envelope is enclosed between two lead oxide screens which are in direct<br />

contact with the film. This form <strong>of</strong> packaging affords great convenience in<br />

material handling in an industrial x-ray department. As pointed out in "Lead<br />

Oxide Screens", it provides the advantage <strong>of</strong> cleanliness. This is particularly<br />

important where heavy inclusions in the specimen are significant. The use <strong>of</strong><br />

film in this packaging prevents the images <strong>of</strong> such inclusions from being<br />

confused with artifacts caused by dust, cigarette ash, and the like being<br />

introduced between film and screen during darkroom handling. The<br />

timeconsuming process <strong>of</strong> loading and unloading cassettes and film holders<br />

is avoided.<br />
