"Wet reading" is an old term. It meant that the image was to be read by a doctor immediately after development, before even allowing it to dry, back in the days when x-rays were developed in a dark room by dipping the films into chemicals by hand. Today, some older doctors still use the term. It just means to have it read immediately. In most cases, it's a "stat call report."
