摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates to image plate processors and in particular to developing stations within such processors. A method and apparatus for processing an image (12), comprises the step of passing the image plate (12) through a cooled developer bath (20), the developer (21) in the developer bath being cooled by a coolant in a one stage coolant process without the use of an indirect cooling medium. The invention also encompasses an image plate processor in which the developing station includes a cooled developer bath (20) in which the developer (21) is cooled by a coolant in a one stage coolant process without the use of an indirect cooling medium.</p> |
