Use of polaroid film in intraoperative renal radiography: a new technique.
A new intraoperative renal radiography technique using Polaroid film is presented. The quality of the Polaroid radiograph is satisfactory enough to visualize radiopaque calculi and provides good information on the localization of intrarenal calculi in a short time. The time required for photographic development is 15 seconds and a dark room is not necessary.
