title: Equipment vibration and radiographic image resolution.
abstract: Accelerometer transducers were employed to detect linear vibratory motions in various radiographic equipment during film exposure. Vibratory displacements sufficient to degrade the image were found in several spot-film devices and Bucky drawers. Other potential sources of image degradation are discussed.
