I work at a medical museum/archives that is part of a hospital. As a result, we do collaborative exhibits from time to time with hospital departments. Our next one is with the radiology department - basically showing the development of the process from my understanding (the meeting about it is next Tuesday).
As part of the exhibit, the docs would like to display at least one constantly lit glass plate/lantern slide xray. I have no idea as yet if it would be direct or indirect lighting and how the xray would be supported within the exhibit. Needless to say, this whole idea makes me very nervous. My thinking is that the constant exposure to light would not be good for the xray, not to mention the effect the heat of the case/light combo and support methods on the plate's emulsion. Does these sound like reasonable objections and can anyone give any others that I can take to the docs on Tuesday?
Many thanks!
