Film Processing

When using conventional films, you must process the film according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Process the film under safelight conditions manually or using an automatic processor.

If you use an automatic processor, see the processor’s manual. Check that the processor maintenance is performed regularly.

If you process the film manually, follow precisely the manufacturer’s recommendations for solution preparation, processing time, and solution temperature for both developer and fixer baths. Any deviation from the manufacturer’s recommendations (such as a solution that would be too concentrated or diluted, too hot or cold, or if the film processing duration is incorrect) will impact the final radiography quality.

Before archiving, do not forget to wash the film correctly and to dry it in a clean place.
