A conventional X ray image is a black and white photographic film exposed to invisible light emitted by a cathode tube emitting high energy, high frequency light that penetrates tissues opaque to visible light. Though they are negatives, they appear natural to us: white bone, dark tissue. Departing from this monochrome tradition, these images are printed as duotones, using contrasting, complementary colours to create highly coloured prints that are neither negative nor positive.
