Technical Director Perry McDaniel says dosage is halved, with benefits including lower operating costs and better films. Du Pont expert C R Marsh notes lanthanum oxybromide screens enable higher speed and improved photographs, while Cronex films further improve contrast and reduce noise for general and specialized procedures.
