These supplies are categorized under the supply class "Replenishable Field Medical Sets, Kits, And Outfits" within the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies."

X-Ray supplies typically include:

1. X-Ray film: These are sheets of photographic film used to capture X-ray images.

2. X-Ray cassettes: These are light-tight cases that hold the X-ray film and protect it from exposure to light.

3. X-Ray grids: These are devices placed between the patient and the X-ray film to improve image quality by reducing scattered radiation.

4. X-Ray markers: These are lead letters or symbols used to mark the X-ray film with patient information, such as the patient's name, date, and left/right indicators.

5. X-Ray protective apparel: This includes lead aprons, thyroid shields, and gloves worn by healthcare professionals to protect themselves from radiation exposure during X-ray procedures.

6. X-Ray positioning aids: These are devices used to help position patients correctly for X-ray imaging, such as positioning sponges, sandbags, and immobilization devices.

7. X-Ray contrast media: These are substances administered to patients to enhance the visibility of specific body structures during X-ray imaging, such as iodine-based contrast agents.

8. X-Ray film processing chemicals: These are chemicals used in the development and processing of X-ray films to produce diagnostic images.

It is important to note that the specific X-ray supplies may vary depending on the medical facility's requirements and the type of X-ray equipment being used.
