X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation that can penetrate various tissues, producing images of internal structures, primarily used in diagnostic imaging. They are crucial in clinical practice for identifying fractures, infections, and tumours, guiding treatment decisions. However, excessive exposure can lead to radiation-induced complications, such as increased cancer risk, necessitating careful consideration of their use in patient care.
