Someone shuld be more specific in these rumors. If you are really using NASI seeds then can you clear this up? There is no reason why gold would not show up on fluoroscopy. "dont show up well" should be defined because it can mean they can't be visualized at all. In fact it is my understanding that they can be seen but their alignment might not be clear since once sees two dots (representing the two gold beads) so knowing where one seed starts and ends and another starts is a guess. Is this in fact the case? With the Amersham wire it is clear to see the seed outline because of the wire.

And lastly how much of a problem is it?
