As has been said in Vol. 350 of the well-known English medical journal, “The Lancet”, Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered the x-ray in the year of 1895 after experimenting with a cathode-ray tube and spotting fluorescent shapes. Despite its later use in medicine, Wilhelm Rontgen refused to profit from his discovery. Many scientists at the time used machines similar to that of Rontgen’s, and were quick to repeat his findings for themselves. Within just as soon a time, these scientists made such technology available to the medical field. In just a few months of its discovery, radiology was used in medical settings worldwide. (Brian 1). It is unquestionable that at the time of its discovery, the medical field was in desperate need of such imaging
