Yes, gamma rays will enter and also pass through less dense areas of your body. X-rays are gamma rays, and the reason they work is because denser areas of the body, like bone, block some of the gamma rays from getting to the x-ray film across from the emitter.

Is a gamma ray a natural ray?
Yes, a gamma ray is a natural ray. It occurs as a result of changes to atomic nuclei, and we most often see them (gamma rays) appear in radioactive decay.
