Was at Dentist today used a battery powered X-Ray, looked like a larger 
plastic gun, did not use film, but used a digital microchannel plate w 
xray floresent inside plastic case.  Lower X ray intensity.

remember when the motor would wind up and provide a large burst of 
current for the large xray tube to do an xray ?  (and blast the area ?)

every home should have one.  Amaze your friends!

I thought you were terrified of radiation?

to overcome fear, I thought I would start off with small doses of it.

ever see this one ?

xray photos from radio tube, just up the voltage on it, several you tube 
videos about that

  Ah, yes, C. L. Stong, contributor to SciAm back when it was worth reading.

  My wonderful wife bought me the CD for my birthday some years back. Best science-geek gift ever!

Yes, I saw it when it was first published, back when Scientific American
ran real articles for real projects.

Sadly my supply of 4 pin tubes with magnesium getters is currently zero.

While working at the NIST in Gaithersburg Md I ran into the inventors of this device.  This was in about 1988.  They had a special device like this for the military. It is amazing image reconstruction theory. I guess the military  decided to release the technology.

The exact names of the inventors are Jullian Sparrow and Dr. Motz I believe.
