Why X-ray can not pass through the glass but can pass through the diamond or body?
X-ray actually does pass through plain glass, and quite easily in most cases. It is often very difficult to find a small piece of glass embedded in the human body because the density of most types of glass is not high enough to stop or absorb enough of the x-ray to make it show up against the normal body tissues. Perhaps you are thinking about the special glass window that a technologist or radiologist stands behind when watching you during your x-ray. That isn't regular glass, but a special lead-glass designed in specific lead equivalencies and standard thickness to stop radiation from penetrating under various radiation conditions. The lead-equivalency of radiation safety glass is based on exposures at 150 kV.
Some types of lead glass and glassware are used for their decorative properies and do have a fairly high density. They can in some cases absorb a great deal of radiation and show up quite well on a routine x-ray. These aren't the standard type of glass. Now days these types of decorative glass "lead crystal"are not made from real lead due to safety concerns, but blends of barium sulfate, etc.

How is xray is used?
Radiography is generally used to look for suspicious or unusual particles in the body. Radiography is the process of transmitting X-rays through the body.
Can a piece of glass travel through the body without causing harm?
No, a piece of glass cannot travel through the body without causing harm. Glass is sharp and can cause internal injuries if it enters the body.
Can a sharp object work its way through the body?
if the glass is small and to deep to get out will it work its way through my body?
How long does it take for a glass of water to pass through the body's digestive system?
It typically takes about 20-30 minutes for a glass of water to pass through the body's digestive system.
How long does it take for a glass of water to pass through your system?
It typically takes about 20-30 minutes for a glass of water to pass through your system and be absorbed by your body.
What happens when light strikes a transparent body like glass?
When light strikes a transparent body like glass, it can either be transmitted (pass through the glass), reflected (bounce off the surface of the glass), or refracted (bent as it passes through the glass). The amount of light that is transmitted, reflected, and refracted depends on the angle of incidence and the properties of the glass.
What is the purpose of xray?
An x-ray is used as a non-invasive way to visualize the inside of your body.

What exactly is an x ray tech certification?
An xray technician certificate allows the bearer to be able to use the diagnostic equipment and take images of the body using the different types of xray equipment available.
What is name given to scan interior structure of human body?

the obvious answer is the xray
Do i need to shave my legs for a knee xray?
Not if you don't want to... The functions of the x-ray machine will not be obstructed by body hair.
