Intensifying screen for xeroradiography.

A high-atomic-number rare gas has been incorporated into xeroradiographic cassettes in order to increase the sensitivity of the process to x radiation. Preliminary results indicate that krypton gas at 1-atm pressure increases the sensitivity by approximately a factor of 2 in the mammography energy region.
