X-RAY Imaging ( 42 Questions)
Question 1: X-ray imaging is commonly used in medical settings for various purposes. Which of the following statements best describes the principle behind X-ray imaging?
X-rays do not produce sound waves; they use ionizing radiation to create images, as mentioned in the correct explanation.
X-rays do not use magnets; magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses magnets to create images of bones and soft tissues.
X-ray imaging uses ionizing radiation, which has high energy and can penetrate tissues. When X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed differently by various tissues, creating an image that allows visualization of bones and soft tissues.
X-rays do not emit radio waves; magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) use radio waves to visualize organs and blood vessels.
