Creators

Description

To avoid problems in communication between the examining physician, the X-ray technician and the diagnosing radiologist, the present invention utilizes adhesive tape having radiopaque material incorporated into it. This tape is for use by the examining physician, to mark the exact location of concern. It will be visualized by the X-ray technician who shoots the film, and will then appear on the processed film to focus the attention of the radiologist to the area deserving closest attention
