Yes! My girlfriend and I just took a graduate medical physics course titled, "Radiation Biology" in the physics department. We are both chemists. This course was taught by four professors: a chemist, a biologist, a physicist, and a medical physicist.
Radiation causes all types of chemistry to occur. In our bodies radiation, such as gamma- or X-rays can cause the production oxygen radicals or superoxide radicals, which then react with anything in the vicinity--hopefully tumor cells. This is just a small example of the types of reactions that can occur.
Also, simple x-rays are based on principles taught in chemistry. I relate taking an x-ray to taking a transmittance reading on a spec 20--Where transmittance is the ratio of the intensity of light transmitted through a medium over the initial intensity of that light. There are many more examples. Hope this helps!
