Few gray tones, mainly black and white image; may also be referred to as short-scale
contrast; produced at lower kVp

, Converts exposed silver bromide crystals (latent image) to black metallic silver
(visible image)

Developer
Portion of the H & D curve representing maximum density; 2.5 to D-max

Shoulder
Distance from the x-ray tube anode to the image receptor, affects density through the
inverse square law; controls magnification and image blur; the longer the SID, the
better the recorded detail

Source-to-image distance
The distance from the object to the image receptor; controls magnification of the
image and image blur, the shorter the OID, the better the recorded detail
