A gamma ray might have a good chance of going right through the X-ray machine. Remember that the X-ray machine creates X-rays and not gamma rays to perform its function.
Yes an X-Ray is a light wave. It comes before Gamma Rays! The smallest wave visible.
No, a gamma wave is not a mechanical wave. The gamma ray is considered an electromagnetic wave.

Gamma ray
Usually gamma radiation are among the shortest energy wavelength.
A gamma ray is an electromagnetic wave. It has the highest frequency (and energy) as well as the shortest wavelength on any wave on the electromagnetic spectrum.
Radiowave is nonionizing while gamma ray is ionizing.
It is a high energy electromagnetic wave.
We use a gamma ray machine to find out where the gamma rays are and where they are pointed to. We also use these machines to study a gamma ray.
