fouding father of x-ray
Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen
professor of University of Wertzburg
Germany
win nobel prize 1901 (very first one for physics)
x-ray discoverd
11/8/1895
discover x-ray using what
Crooke’s Tube using barium platinocyanide (green color light)
first x-ray
hand of ana bertha roentgen (his wife)
“I saw death”
wait 15 to 30 minute
picture has kid take x-ray arm. the guy next to him is ?
Eddie Mccarty
thomas edison discover
fluoroscopy
X-ray vision
People at this time thought they could see through the clothes
Marie Curie
extracted radium from pitchblende
1899 Radium
she and her husband Pierre discovered pyroelectric effect crystals used for ultrasound
radithor
1928
radithor contained 1 microcurie each of ra-226 and ra-228. A.M.Byers died from drinking Radithor
radiation product
tho-radia face cream (make skin white)
using in France in the early 1930s contain 0.5g thorium chloride and 0.25 mg radium bromide
radium wath dials
early 1900 (radium girls)
radium bread (radium water use of loaves)
Scrotal Radiendocrinator
suppose to invigorate sexual virility
Inventor of the radiendocrinator, William Bailey (invented Radithor) died form bladder cancer
properties
travel in straight lines (many areas, many ways but always straight)
Invisible
Highly Penetrating (strong light can see bone)
darken photographic film
polyenergetic (some x-ray strong, some weak)
cause ionization (means most of the film will light up when exposed to radiation)
electrically neutral
chemical & biological changes
causes scatter radiation (weaker strength of x-ray)
causes secondary radiation (bound off patient goes to technologist)
travel at the speed of light
produces a small amount of heat during interactions
causes certain chemicals to fluoresce (barium platinocyanid)
cannot be focused by a lens
