摘要: ABSTRACT Silver is used to manufacture more than a billion square feet of medical X-Ray film per year in the United States. These films are usually coated on both sides with rich emulsion designed give accurate diagnosis while minimizing radiation exposure. Radiology largest single user silver. Recycling can be improved. Reducing quantity silver has helped conserve but affected quality and patient
