Radiographic magnification
To mitigate the magnification or distortion that may occur in a radiographic image captured on film emulsion, it is advisable to diminish the distance between the object and the film. Simultaneously, enhancing the separation between the focus and the film can also contribute to minimizing these undesirable effects. By reducing the object-film distance, the image…
