Radiography is the art and science of using radiation to provide images of the tissues, organs, bones, and vessels that comprise the human body. These images may be recorded on film or as a computerized image. Radiologists, physicians who have had special training in interpreting x-ray images, read or diagnose these images. Treatment of a patient depends on the accurate and precise production of radiographic images, otherwise called "x rays" by the general public
Diagnostic radiography involves the use of both ionising radiation and non-ionising radiation to create images for medical diagnoses. The predominant test is still the X-ray (the word X-ray is often used for both the test and the actual film or digital image). X-rayare the second most commonly used medical tests, after Blood_test. This application is known as diagnostic radiography. Since the body is made up of various substances with differing densities, X-rays can be used to reveal the internal structure of the body on film by highlighting these differences using Attenuation_(electromagnetic_radiation), or the absorption of X-ray Photonby the denser substances (like Calcium-richbones). Medical diagnostic radiography is undertaken by a specially trained professional called a diagnostic radiographer in the UK, or a Radiologic_technologistin the USA.
A radiographer uses radiation to treat or diagnose illnesses. Diagnostic radiographers use x-rays, ultrasound, magnetism or radioactive isotopes to diagnose illness or injury Therapeutic radiographers use radiation to treat or control tumours
radiography
'Direct' radiography implies that the other form is 'indirect' radiography which is indeed the implicit connotation. With digital radiography the results of the X-ray are immediate as the system is connected directly to the computer. In indirect radiography (also called computed radiography) a phosphor plate is used, become radiated, and then are scanned following this exposure to see that X-ray's outcome.

Encephalogram means radiography of the brain.
When the film is placed within the patient's mouth during radiography, it is known as intraoral radiography. This technique allows for detailed imaging of individual teeth and specific areas within the mouth.
If joint efficiency is 0.7 then there is no radiography,if it is 0.85 then 10% radiography of the total length of welding and if joint efficiency is 1.0 then 100% radiography is required.

One is the study of radios (radiography) and radio style waves where as the other is the person who studies radios. A radiologist studys radiography or a radiographier studies radiography Radiologists also have a medical degree such as a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) or a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.)
