I suggest the paper conservation dept at Victoria and Albert Museum, as they
did extensive work just like this a few years ago and it is very well
documented

Subject: Underdrawing Research Project
Dear All:
I'm a member of a research team that will be starting a research project on
underdrawing in Portuguese painting.
We will use the usual infrared procedures to identify the underlying drawing
(s) on several paintings of the period called "The Primitive Portuguese",
15Th century mostly.
Besides cataloguing and classifying the underdrawings, our goal is to
quantify the amount of relativistic information present in drawings related
to the final paintings.
We hope to identify patterns in defined periods and authors, thus moving
further in time. Different periods can be looked upon from the use of
drawing perspective. Not, in the usual way, studying the independent
preparatory drawings but also those, which are incorporated on the
paintings.
We hope also to sharpen the definition of drawing as a part of a process
and not as a final work.
We would like to discuss some of those issues with anyone who has previous
experience on underdrawing studies or people that are just curious about it.
Best,
Eduardo
