What is the ingredients of x-ray film developer?

I dont specifically know what chemical it is, but x-ray film developing solution is used to develop an x-ray. Just like with photographs, an x-ray is a picture taken on a big piece of film (it is loaded into the board you stand in front of to get an x-ray), and then the 'picture' is snapped, and the film has to be developed in a dark room, where you dip the x-ray in a developing solution for a few minutes and then you can see the picture (in this case your bones). before an x-ray is developed its just a big black piece of film, and just like with a camera, if you expose it to light before it has been developed, it is ruined. hope this answered your question
