Descripción

A dynamic x-ray imaging technique used to examine the internal structure of an object, fluoroscopy produces real time video images by converting x-rays into light (via a fluorescent screen) which is captured by a TV camera. Fluoroscopy is used primarily for medical imaging, but also in the examination of archaeological finds and works of art.
