    Depends upon several steps:- 1-The x-ray tube and detector transverse (scan) the object. 2-The radiation beam passes through the object and is attenuated. The intensity of radiation beam from x- ray tube and transmitted beam both are detected by suitable detectors. 3-The transmitted beam and the references beam are both converted into electric signals. 4-These output current signals are then converted into digital form by analog –to-digital converter. 5-The digital data are then normalized and the logarithms calculated to generate relative transmission values : Relative transmission values =log I0/I. 6-The relative transmission values are sent to the computer, which uses suitable programs to reconstruct cross sections…

    In 1895, x-rays were discovered by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen. He was a Professor at Wuerzburg University which was in Germany. He worked with a cathode-ray tube in which he observed a fluorescent glow of crystals on a table near the tube. The tube that Roentgen was working with at the time was made of a glass envelope with positive and negative electrodes filled in it. The air that was in the tube was let out. When a high voltage was applied, the tube produced a glow that was fluorescent. He then…

    X-rays are a very powerful and valuable technique that can provide important and lifesaving information. Fluoroscope, is an x-ray device that allows physicians to view live images inside the human body that are projected onto a viewing monitor during a diagnostic and intraoperative procedures. This machine uses X-rays to give real-time video images on the area of interest making it possible to see internal organs in motion such as blood flow and catheter insertion. A Fluoroscopy captures these…

    lab with a cathode-ray tube when he saw a fluorescent light coming from crystals on a table near his cathode-ray tube. The tube Roentgen was using had a glass bulb with positive and negative electrodes condensed inside it. During his experiment trial, he first released the air in the tube. Then, he increased the voltage inside the tube, resulting in a neon indigo light appearing from the cathode-ray tube. Afterwards, Roentgen covered the tube with a dense black barrier, and noticed a fluorescent…

    X-rays were discovered in 1895 by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen, a Professor at Wuerzburg University in Germany. While working with a cathode-ray tube in his laboratory, Roentgen observed a fluorescent glow of crystals on a table near his tube. In the past, people were unaware of how harmful x-rays are, because they are invisible. Scientists and researchers working in the radiography field were not aware of the effect on the body after continuous exposure. When radiography was in its infancy, it was…

    process of producing x-ray pictures, also known as RADIOGRAPHS. X-rays were discovered on November 8, 1895 by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen in Germany at the University of Wurzburg. Radiographs are produced through the use of radiation. There are three different types of radiation. These include PRIMARY RADIATION, REMNANT RADIATION, and SCATTER RADIATION. Primary is the radiation that leaves the tube, remnant is the “exit radiation” that passes through the image receptor, and scatter has less energy…
