Known as tungsten spitting, it can be identified with radiography and prevented by changing the type of electrode or increasing the electrode diameter.
Since its development in the 1950s, muon tomography has taken many forms, the most important of which are muon transmission radiography and muon scattering tomography.
Digital radiography eliminates x-ray film and associated toxic chemicals in dentistry by employing a re-usable semiconductor imaging device to capture x-rays.
