X-Rays have been in use as a medical imaging technique since 1895 when Wilhelm Roentgen found that he was able to create images of internal bodily structures such as bones and tissues by putting electromagnetic waves through the body. He called the project X because he did not fully understand what made up the rays. X-Rays have been the building block upon which medical imaging technology and equipment for medical imaging have been constructed. Although the X-Ray (or radiograph) has long been a basic medical imaging tool, this approach has always had the drawback that the images produced are not exact. The images require extremely careful analysis and interpretation. Scientists have been researching for years in an attempt to find a way to make the radiographic image View the rest of this article
