Abstract

A small lightweight X-ray machine and processor are needed for use in military medicine for humanitarian service missions, training exercises, and even tactical situations. Size and weight have frequently been a limiting factor for the use of X-ray equipment in military medicine. The large size and great weight of X-ray equipment often limit its use and make this diagnostic modality unsuitable. I believe that a smaller X-ray machine, combined with the new improved lightweight Polaroid processor and film, can provide adequate X-ray exams in a high percentage of patients.
