Abstract
A film holder for a video display system, having a probe with a head portion, a processor, a monitor, and a printer for producing a permanent hard copy of the image received by the probe, includes a housing for positioning the film relative to the head of the video probe. The housing is provided with an aperture for receiving, positioning, and securing the head of the video probe within the housing. The housing also includes a diffuser for diffusing light entering the housing, and a slidable frame positioned between the diffuser and the housing aperture. The sliding frame is employed to secure the film at a predetermined distance from the head of the video probe. The sliding frame is provided with quick release fasteners so that individual pieces of x-ray film are easily interchanged within the frame.
