| mucosal relief radiography | Radiographic technique showing fine detail of gastrointestinal mucosa after coating it with a barium suspension and distending the organ with air or gas released from an ingested powder. (05 Mar 2000) |

| scanning equalization radiography | An electronically enhanced method of radiography in which a small X-ray beam is scanned over the patient while its attenuation is measured, providing feedback to modulate beam intensity in order to equalise average X-ray film exposure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sectional radiography | <procedure, radiology> The recording of internal body images at a predetermined plane by means of the tomograph, also called body section roentgenography. Origin: Gr. Graphein = to write (18 Nov 1997) |
| serial radiography | Making several X-ray exposures of a single region over a period of time, as in angiography. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spot-film radiography | An X-ray of a localised region, usually under study by fluoroscopy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital radiography | Computed radiography or computer processing of a digitised image from a conventional image-intensifier and video camera. See: DSA. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electron radiography | <radiology> Radiographic imaging in which X-radiation incident on the receptor is converted to a latent charge image and subsequently recovered by a special printing process; advantages include wider latitude of exposure and greater sensitivity than conventional film-screen combinations. See: xeroradiography, phosphor plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
