The use of Television and Motion Pictures in Diagnostic Radiology

In radiology, ciné filming of a fluoroscopic image derived from the output phosphor of an image amplifying tube is common practice and has added the dynamic study of organ structures to the usual static film studies. This is facilitated by the use of television monitoring of the image during study of the patient and recording of the image on ciné film. Many procedures previously performed in darkened rooms may thus be performed in adequately lighted rooms. Closed-circuit television is utilized for teaching and for the transmission of radiographic images from the hospital's X-Ray Department to the Emergency Department.
