X-Ray

The use of the X-ray machine as a diagnostic tool in medicine has resulted in cured illnesses and extended lives. The X-ray is also used in engineering for research and as a diagnostic inspection tool.

We know that X-rays can be harmful. They can damage body tissue. Because of this, when we use X-rays to aid in medical diagnosis, we want to expose only the area of interest to the incident beam of the machine. We'll protect other areas as necessary using lead blankets. X-ray staffers know where to place the blankets, and they arrange them to protect other body parts. It's a sure bet that reproductive organs will be hidden under those blankets.

Ground glass infiltrates look exactly like ground glass on an x-ray. They are indicative of restrictive lung disease and usually range from mild to severe depending on the amount of infiltrates. Diagnosis might range from pleral issues to pneumonia.

Quanta of X-ray carry less energy than gamma-ray quanta.

Similar to a photograph, the x-rays (the actual RAYS) hit the object it's supposed to hit and then reflects off of whatever was blocking it and a special "machine-thingy" prints the image on a piece of that shiny paper via the ray-pattern it sends back to the paper. [:<

Actually cystal is a three dimensional grating with grating element(interplanar spacing)as of the order of 1 angstron unit. Also the wavelength of X rays is of the order of 1 angstron which satisfies basic condition of diffraction(Bragg's law). Gamma rays are not used for the same reason as well as gamma ray production is not high enough, difficult to focus and high intense enough to create particl and antiparticle.

hello i am bored so i thought id write an answer for this in btec science thats right btec science because im an idiot uand your a weirdo thankyou this is not the correct answer by the way

X-rays are a form of ionizing radiation, similar to the gamma rays from nuclear radiation. These forms of radiation are highly-penetrating, and they damage or kill cells deep within the body. People who work with these types of radiation on a regular basis want to avoid damage to their bodies, and so they take protective measures to minimize their exposure.

It would be extremely difficult to conceal jewelery in an x-ray particularly if the jewelery is metal. Even pearls and diamonds show up on x-rays. Cheap, thin plastic beads might not be visible on some x-rays.

I've had it with and without. When they check my bite, the put a small piece of plastic in you back teeth. When the check my braces, they just have a machine that swerves around my head. I think it just depends on your dentist.

Well the more energy a ray has the faster it goes so i think people are mistaking light the fastest when it is x rays.

More energy does not neccessarily make a ray go faster, otherwise you would see the bright part of a picture before you would see the darker parts.

With X-ray baggage scanners, a small dose of X-rays is used to illuminate the luggage for inspection. Computers analyze the transmitted rays and analyze luggage properties. Displayed on the screen is a computerized image that indicates which items are dangerous (colored differently).

This can be a tricky question especially so broad of a question. Regular plain film xrays....most anything in the head or face because more than likely the doctor will order a CT anyway. Unless you have been in a major accident and are having problems breathing refuse rib xrays. Reason #1 a regular chest xray (cxr) will show if somthing is wrong and #2 nothing can be done for broken ribs except for a bandage. Another xray to avoid is the tailbone xray....The doctor wont set it, you wont get a cast...YOu will get a doughnut and pain meds which is the same thing you would get if you didnt have the xray.

Another exam i never understood was a chest xray on a pregnant woman to check for tuburculosis. I personally believe all pegnant women should refuse xrays unless there is trauma but if they are checking for TB it really is pointless because if she has it she cant be treated for it until after she gives birth anyway so there is really no point.

If I were an inpatient I would refuse to having a daily cxr and opt for one every other day.

Yes, it's ok, it's private stuff and doctors see it all the time, it's ok.

You can have an X-ray with a plaster cast on, however the image won't be as clear as it could be without one. It creates more layers that the radiation needs to penetrate to create a clear image for the Radiologist to look at. Having a plaster cast on will create a cloudy and unreadable image.

It is a bit thorough but it's quick and let's you be carefree. Buy a sharpie and take off the cap. It is thicker than most pen caps and has no holes. Next, stuff as much chronic as you can in there, leaving about a quarter to a half inch of space. Next, get some paper and put a little in there...the cap should be ALMOST full. Now here's the trick. Take the pen cap and scrape some deodorant into the hole. Smooth it over. Take a lighter and melt the deodorant briefly. This should seal the end like wax and wallah! Put it in a day planner or something inconspicuous. Do not put drugs in your toiletries bag ever. I've had the 'random search' twice while flying and that's all they look into usually. Don't be a hipster either. If you look like Stoney bologna you'll get messed with. If you're worried about the old spice messing with the flavor of your favorite bubonic chronic, it really isn't a big deal...it might a little. That's why I put paper in there don't let deodorant touch your stash. If you want to fly with more...like an eighth or a quarter then you should by some hair glue that people use to mold their fo-hawks. Empty out the bottom and place it in there in the bag. Then put the hair glue back on top. Smooth it over, put it in you biggest bag and then check the bag do not use carry on. I'm a 27 year old business owner that flys a lot and this works for me.

A gamma wave has more energy than a radio wave.

X-ray telescopes have to be sent into space away from the earths atmosphere and take in X-ray radiation into their multilayer mirrors and the ones sent by balloons are collecting the more penetrating X-rays but if its by shuttle they detect the softer x-rays. the x-rays are converted into a image. whereas the radio telescopes can be used from the ground as radio signals travel to the ground but they have to be huge massive things to collect the signals having a wide range and they collect the data in sound and make them into images by using the light from the universe.

Computed tomography scans (CT scans) of the abdomen may reveal the inflammation and fluid accumulation of pancreatitis, and may also be useful when complications like an abscess or a pseudocyst are suspected.
