At high voltage, direct exposure techniques, electrons emitted by the lead<br />

backing <strong>of</strong> the cassette or exposure holder may reach the film through the<br />

intervening paper or felt and record an image <strong>of</strong> this material on the film. This<br />

effect is avoided by the use <strong>of</strong> lead or fluorescent screens. In the radiography<br />

<strong>of</strong> light metals, direct-exposure techniques are the rule, and the paper folder<br />

should be left on interleaved film when loading it in the exposure holder. The<br />

ends <strong>of</strong> a length <strong>of</strong> roll film factory-packed in a paper sleeve should be sealed<br />

in the darkroom with black pressure-sensitive tape. The tape should extend<br />

beyond the edges <strong>of</strong> the strip 1/4 to 1/2 inch, to provide a positive light tight<br />

seal.<br />
