4. Handling and care of imaging plates
The correct use, handling, cleaning and storage
of imaging plates guarantees the best image
quality and maximum service life of the imaging
plates.
4.1 General
• X-ray exposures DO NOT cause IPs to age.
• The light-coloured side of the IP is the side which
“stores” the x-ray image. It is the SENSITIVE side!
• Image information “stored” on an IP after an
exposure is sensitive to light.
4.2 Handling
• Handle IPs in the same way as you would handle
CDs or DVDs.
• Hold IPs by their edges using your finger tips.
• Protect the sensitive side of the IP from:
- scratches, wear and mechanical damage
- stains, dirt, dust and fingerprints
NOTE:
Stains / fingerprints on the sensitive side can
degrade the diagnostic value of the image
Dust/wear on the sensitive side can appear as
white/grey spots on the image!
