摘要:
A blue-sensitive radiographic silver halide film comprises a silver halide emulsion layer comprising predominantly tabular silver halide grains that have an aspect ratio of at least 15, a grain thickness of at least 0.1 &mgr;m, and comprise at least 90 mol % bromide and up to 4 mol % iodide, based on total silver halide. Substantially all of the iodide is present in an internal localized portion of the tabular silver halide grains that excludes the surface of the grains. The tabular silver halide grains are dispersed in a hydrophilic polymeric vehicle mixture comprising at least 0.5% of oxidized gelatin, based on the total dry weight of the polymeric vehicle mixture in the emulsion layer. The tabular silver halide grains are spectrally sensitized using a combination of spectral sensitizing dyes to provide increased speed and reduced dye stain. The dyes have maximum J-aggregate absorptions on the tabular silver halide grains of from about 380 to about 500 nm, wherein the maximum J-aggregate absorption of one spectral sensitizing dye is from about 20 to about 50 nm lower in wavelength than the maximum J-aggregate absorption of the second spectral sensitizing dye.
摘要:
A radiographic silver halide film has improved processability because it includes a silver halide emulsion composed of cubic grains having a critical molar ratio of chloride, iodide, and bromide. In particular, the cubic grains comprise from about 1 to about 20 mol % of chloride and from about 0.25 to about 1.5 mol % of iodide, with the remainder being bromide. The cubic grains also have an ECD of from about 0.65 to about 0.8 &mgr;m. This film is particularly useful in mammography for imaging dense soft tissue.

An inexpensive, ballasted optical brightener for use in photographic elements is prepared by reacting an optical brightener of the formula ##STR1## where M is a cation; X is a group capable of undergoing nucleophilic displacement; and Z is ##STR2## or --O--R.sub.3, where each of R1 and R2 is a hydrogen atom, or an aromatic group which can be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more groups unreactive towards X; and R3 is an aromatic group which can be unsubstituted or substituted with one or more groups unreactive towards Xwith a water soluble polymer, such as gelatin. The resulting ballasted optical brightener is stable in aqueous photographic compositions.

摘要:
A radiation-sensitive element is disclosed including a radiation-sensitive layer comprised of a cobalt(III)complex and a photoreductant. A process is disclosed in which the photoreductant is converted to a reducing agent by exposure to electromagnetic radiation longer than 300 nanometers. The reducing agent is then reacted with a cobalt(III)complex. Images can be recorded directly within the radiation-sensitive layer or in a separate image-recording element or layer by use of the residual cobalt(III)complex not exposed or one or more of the reaction products produced by exposure. By using the ammonia liberated from ammine ligand containing cobalt(III)complexes on exposure in combination with imagewise and uniform exposures, positive or negative images can be formed in diazo image-recording layers or elements associated with the radiation-sensitive layer.

By the selection of amine-responsive reducing agent precursors, the amines released by the cobalt(III)complexes cause an amplified image.
