In projection microradiography, the photographic film is moved back from contact with the specimen. This results in enlargement of the shadow produced by the X rays passing through the specimen and falling on the photographic emulsion (Figure 11-30). The principle of projec- tion microradiography is utilized in the construction of the compound. Figure 11-31. Contact Radiograph of Transverse Section of Human Bone.
