Curie's solution was to invent the first "radiological car" – a vehicle containing an X-ray machine and photographic darkroom equipment – which could be driven right up to the battlefield...
Oct 11, 2017 · How Marie Curie Brought X-Ray Machines To the Battlefield. During World War I, the scientist invented a mobile x-ray unit, called a “Little Curie,” and trained 150 women to operate it
Jan 8, 2024 · Curie quickly realised the potential value of having X-rays near the battle front for surgeons to use. As her daughter Eve Curie wrote: “ A luxury, the magic arrangement whereby a rifle bullet or fragment of shell could at once be discovered and localized in the wound.”
Nov 16, 2023 · X-ray machines consist of an X-ray tube, a detector, and a control panel. The X-ray tube emits controlled bursts of X-rays, which pass through the body and reach the detector. The detector captures the X-rays that pass through the body and converts them into an electrical signal.

Aug 22, 2016 · Figure 2-7 is a characteristic curve of an x-ray film exposed with intensifying screens and processed in x-ray chemistry. The portion of the curve designated as the “toe” demonstrates the response of the emulsion to relatively small amounts of radiant energy.
Macintyre’s film displays the lack of knowledge, in this period, about the potential dangers of the x-ray: in the closing scene, a figure sits next to the man whose stomach is being x-rayed, without any concern for his proximity to the resultant radiation, or attempt to wear protective gear.
