This object has the following keywords:

• radiography - The making of radiographs, images produced on photographic film by a radiation other than light, especially x-rays or gamma rays. Modern radiography systems are moving away from x-ray sensitive film to produce these images, with a digital plate replacing film. For the science or practice of dealing with x-rays or nuclear radiation in general, use "radiology."
• technical drawings - The broad class of drawings that are intended for constructional, mechanical, or mapping purposes and that follow precise conventions of scale and projection, including cross-sections, details, diagrams, elevations, perspectives, plans, etc., made for use in a technical context.
