Scope note: Pantallas que absorben la energía del haz de rayos x que ha penetrado al paciente y convierte esta energía en un patrón de luz que tiene la información más cercana posible al haz de rayos x original. Mientras más luz produzca la pantalla por entrada de radiación x, se requiere menor exposición a los rayos x y por tanto una exposición más corta en el tiempo para exponer la película, En la mayoría de los sistemas de pantalla, la misma se introduce entre dos pantallas en un contenedor de modo que la emulsión de cada lado se exponga a la luz que proviene de la pantalla contigua.

Scope note: Screens which absorb the energy in the x-ray beam that has penetrated the patient and convert this energy into a light pattern which has as nearly as possible the same information as the original x-ray beam. The more light a screen produces for a given input of x-radiation, the less x-ray exposure and thus shorter exposure time are needed to expose the film. In most film-screen systems, the film is sandwiched between two screens in a cassette so that the emulsion on each side is exposed to the light from its contiguous screen.
