Aim: Observing the outcomes of the artificial solarization method in the use of blue light-sensitive extraoral films as duplicates due to accidental light exposure.
Material and method: Two groups were formed using two different extraoral films (Kodak T Mat G and Agfa Curix) and these films were exposed to light. Then the films were prepared by placing them under the master copy films. Some of the films in each group were exposed to sunlight, while others were exposed to ultraviolet light as an artificial solarization method (Feket printing equipment). These duplicate films were then processed.
Results: Duplicate films obtained from sunlight produced slightly better results than artificial solarization, and Agfa films produced a better image than Kodak films.
Conclusion: The film method, which was duplicated by artificial solarization, is not a useful method for radiology clinics.
