Brief History of The X-Ray Imaging Equipment

X-Rays have been available for use as medical imaging equipment since around 1895 when Wilhelm Roentgen discovered that he could create images of internal body structures such as bones and some tissues by passing electromagnetic waves through the body. He labeled the phenomenon “X” because he did not initially understand the composition of the “rays”. Since that time, X-Rays have been the foundation upon which medical imaging technology and medical imaging equipment have been built.
