Please Bob,
Try to remember that daylight or flash strobe source are also
radiations!
Put them into your camera and Develop with Stock Dektol in Red light, as
you are used to process your prints. Don't forget that its speed is
rather slow: 6 Iso or less...
Get some unexposed X ray film and see what happens!
Good Luck!
