The principles involved in this type apparatus are shown in Fig. 17. Like the current of the induction coil, the cur-rent from the Tesla coil is high in voltage andlow in amperage, but unlike the current from theinduction coil it is not uni-directional, but is al-ternating in character. Fur this reason, it is con-g ered by some as being less desirable for radi-ographic purposes. However this apparently ob-jectionable feature is overcome by using an x-raytube constructed in such a way as to cut out onewave of the current and thereby produce practi-cally the same result as where an uni-directionalcurrent is used. These coils have the advantage of being lesscumbersome, require less space and are less ex-pensive than the other form of apparatus, but theycannot be dep
