■ Example 2: Film X has a higher contrast at D = 2.0 than Film Z and also<br />

has a finer grain. Suppose that, for these reasons, it is desired to make the<br />

aforementioned radiograph on Film X with a density <strong>of</strong> 2.0 in the same region<br />

<strong>of</strong> maximum interest. Superimpose the overlay on the characteristic curve so<br />

that the horizontal line coincides with the horizontal line for a density <strong>of</strong> 2.0,<br />

and position the overlay from left to right so that the curve for Film Z cuts the<br />

line at the original exposure <strong>of</strong> 50 mA-min (Point C in Figure 52). Read the<br />

new exposure <strong>of</strong> 97.5 mA-min at the point at which the curve for Film X cuts<br />

the horizontal line (Point D in Figure 52).<br />
