        Red and blue-green filters covering incandescent and fluorescent lights can be used to color angiograms, thus making the x-rays easier to read, investigators from Boston's Lahey Clinic report.
        The technique is a new application of the old principles that combining the three primary colors produces grayish or white light, and that adding two primary colors produces a third color or light.
        Robert E. Wise, MD, and Jorge Ganson, MD, developed a device which makes it possible for the physician to view or photograph such light rays reflected from x-rays placed on both sides of a mirror.
        Provided that the areas of main interest in one x-ray have been intensified by injection of contrast medium prior to the color addition procedure, the end result is a superimposed image of both x-rays. In this composite image the background or undesirable bony areas are canceled out or subdued in neutral tones, and structures
