Plate Shield 434 THE JOURNAL OF ROENTGENOLOGY It requires a considerable experience and skill to detectmany of the emulsion defects and light or chemical fogwhen the entire surface of the plate has been exposed. Youlearn quickly and look for this clear transparent border andwhen it does not appear you at once proceed to locate thecause of the trouble and get it out of the way. It is not intended that the shield should be used with allplates. Occasionally the entire surface of the plate is need-ed for the area to be exposed. It should be used frequentlyhowever and if so used will materially advance the stand-ard of your work. The lead shield may be reinforced with a piece of sheetsteel on each side of the lead as this prevents the shieldbending so easily. The use of the plate shield demands greater care in theplacing of the patient in position and consequently encour-ages greater uniformity of positions and angles. Ed. C. J.
