How Do X-rays Work?

X-rays were one of the first forms of biomedical imaging and NIBIB's 60 Seconds of Science explain how they create those images of bones we all know well.

THAT WAS REALLY HELPFUL, I was looking for some websites and videos that has a much more simpler explanation on how do really x-rays work, and yours is a life-saver.

Now you're a little bit smarter than before.

Today in Science History!
In 1895, Wilhem Rontgen took the first x-ray image of the human body. It took 90 minutes of exposure, at a radiation dose of 1500 times what is used today, for him to get an image of his wife's hand. Learn more about x-rays work with NIBIB's 60 Seconds of Science:

[@andybub45]

Not great not terrible

[@Codegard]

What happened to Mrs. Rontgen? Was her hand ok?

[@kwasisb5390]

Wow. Instant understanding. This is much simpler to understand than the other long videos.
Thanks for the video

[@Lilweeji]

I learned more from this minute video than watching a 8 minute video showing me circles flying...

[@rumis.dollsss.15]

I'm so glad that there are concise videos like this.

[@shabadigash4512]

Can't be explained any better... Thank you

[@AbdoulayeTarnagd]

very nice, short and to the point

[@giging2309]

I like the bgm so much that I cannot stop myself from shifting attention to it

[@gourisv4730]

it was so calm and easy to understand

[@asifhusainarastu7193]

Thank you for this wonderful video

[@violinsheetmusicblog]

Thanks straight to the point

[@erickgudin]

Very useful and intersting, thanks for sharing

[@asran6941]

Short video is better than others I got lost for whole 5 min and here I learnt in a min

[@ksistshdhdbdjejehehd]

This video helped me learn ALLOT!!!
Thanks!!! 😋

[@enderj1439]

thanks helped me a lot

[@PerloveRobot]

Wow, that looks amazing.😲

[@ksistshdhdbdjejehehd]

Im only 10 and I STILL learned allot!!!
Thanks!!!

Nice summary.

[@calebadenuga5332]

Wow
This is very good. Thank you ❤

[@anthonylimon2672]

Thank you so much. This was able to help me with my science project!

Thanks so much.

[@benklyrics2562]

love you guys

[@JollyJackfruit]

Very useful 👍🙂

[@gulshanjumma680]

Amazing

[@AjayKushwaha-vi5vg]

Thanks your one line is helpful. To understand how to catch picture of bones by x rays

[@vaughnsiegfriedfuertez396]

Holy this explains alot

[@Burden-THE]

Once somebody told me about how cobalt-60 was used once to emit x-ray radiation, I've needed to know how it works. Though informative, I didn't find any new information from this video.

[@chasedavis2358]

Cobalt is used for gamma radiography, for imaging denser materials

[@shobhit7212]

Awesome

[@creamcheese4487]

Just to clarify, although this might make it more complicated, does the calcium basically absorb some gamma rays?

[@blinddig7525]

@saraaMoh you're wrong, this is extremely concise and helpful

[@amirrahman9240]

Superb

[@theanxiousone1]

Thats awesome

[@guersomfalcon7544]

Wow!

[@louisparkes8666]

wow that's really cool!
👍 up from me!

[@abbasiiithemachine9477]

amazing

NIBIB's 60 Seconds of Science explains the physics of #xrays:

[@jsmithmultimediatech]

Great work seriously nice one!

[@tronbashcottrellbash4083]

Oh my goodness I love this video it helped my girlfriend understand x rays so much more than she did before

[@rbsrana1214]

😂😂

[@augastiacheta6751]

nice

[@corrysvang]

Will Corry be able to analyze Tess ??? ...

[@ibraattala5753]

Good

[@adonistopofmen2571]

good documentation ……..

[@BobTheBuilder294]

i guess even narrators go into work tired some days.

[@jsmithmultimediatech]

Of course we do we all get tired I think it's ok if we cut people some slack sometimes we're only human afterall even the highest trained person even in medical fields will get tired eventually. It's like her with the NHS I am in full agreement with what a former nurse said who became a hospital director said that they're all a bit tired in the NHS as a result of them being under constant strain especially with budget cuts, can really have massive sympathy for them.

[@jsmithmultimediatech]

Though of course it can start to get really dangerous when it concerns peoples health....

[@chrishansen8026]

Damn

[@danilomiranda2002]

Why eletromagnetic waves are always represented as a sinusoidal signal?

[@kazzan3475]

song name?

[@NIBIBgovNIH]

***** The music is by longzijun and called 'Chillvolution.'

[@evanherriges4042]

"60 seconds of science"
video is 1 minute and 29 seconds long
nice one chief

[@Mahta444]

Why the shadows are lighter ?

[@C4illin]

The video starts at 0:18

👍🏾

[@andrewmorgan7500]

Isn't it just all about the natural frequency of atoms in your body? The xrays frequency is more than than the natural frequency of the atoms in your skin and organs but not your bones?

No labor party - contract - ever for - any clinic - Asian terror!

[@raduann]

Yes, x ray is like a shadow, thanks

[@sahtejsingh7449]

[@testo5370]

I still don't understand how the xray functions in reality. Is it a zig zag or is it a straight beam? Or what?

[@gabrilgenua7541]

It "takes" the form of radiation 0:25

[@shobana527]

My finance... Radiography complete... This job any problm here

[@hrishikeshkokane9171]

Ohhhh so they are nothing but the shadows of their respective wavelength

[@rbsrana1214]

😱😱😱😱

[@theanonymousboy4770]

Anyone here because of Chernobyl?

[@ArielBojorquez]

The Anonymous Boy yeah just went to the doctor and got a x Ray, tomorrow I’m going to be begging for that bullet

[@JS-dh2xu]

👐😤😠😁😄😳

[@SaeedNeamati]

"As a result tissues look more shadowy". From what you said previously that bones prevent x-rays, they should look more shadowy.

[@saraaMoh]

thank you that wasn't helpful

[@ceeveegee519]
