I'm talking about the machine on the wall with the light behind it on which they post the x-rays and have a study of them, before removing them and turning the light off.
I know it sounds like minutae but I want the proper term and I can't think of it (maybe I never knew it!)... and I need it for something I'm writing.
Thanks.

While it is a "light box" medics refer to it as a "X-ray Viewer".
Just another one of their little tricks to confound the general public...............
