Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a novel imaging method for thermal sensitive materials, more precisely to an imaging method comprising (1) forming a primary image by the imagewise thermal exposure of thermographic materials comprising a source of reducible metal ions in reaction proximity with thermal reducing compounds, and (2) uniformly processing the primary image during and/or subsequent to said imagewise thermal exposure.
