What is Understanding Radiology: X-Ray Production & Effects about?

Wilhelm Roentgen discovered x-rays in 1895. X-rays are produced when fast moving electrons generated at the cathode strike the tungsten anode, losing kinetic energy. This results in characteristic radiation at discrete wavelengths and bremsstrahlung radiation across a spectrum. The intensity of the x-ray beam depends on factors like kilovoltage, tube current, target material, and filtration. Radiation is measured and regulated according to its biological effects on tissue through units like the rad, gray, r
