\n Who first discovered X-rays? - Ivan Puluj\n

\n It was the Ukrainian scientist Ivan Puluj who, during a 20-year-period investigated the nature of invisible X-rays and what bonuses they can deliver to people when implemented in\n \n \n \n medical engineering\n \n . In 1881, Ivan Puluj designed his famous lamp which functioned based on X-ray radiation.\n

\n Although when you ask Google something like \u201cwhat are X-rays? who invented them?\u201d they mention the name of the German scientist V. Rontgen, the proven fact is that the Ukrainian scientist explained the nature of the X-rays, so he is the real developer of this approach.\n

\n What is an X-ray and how does it work?\n

\n In case a doctor needs to make a diagnosis, X-rays are considered a\n \n \n \n wonderful engineering solution\n \n to receive the first medical imaging process. To perform that, they implement electromagnetic waves to generate black-and-white photos of the body\u2019s internal organs.\n

\n Doctors prefer the X-rays approach because they are a form to make diagnoses and\n \n \n \n support in treatment\n \n , monitor progression of an injury/condition, and evaluate the progress of the recovery.\n

\n It makes no difference why your doctor requests an X-ray, what really matters is that it is considered a brilliant solution to effectively and quickly diagnose any condition. The photos become momentarily available, so they receive answers at once.\n

\n When do they require using X-rays?\n

\n Doctors recommend X-ray investigation in the following issues:\n

\n \u00b7\n Fractured bones.\n

\n Patients that acquire a bone injury are, as a rule, recommended to get X-rays. The photos will reveal for a doctor whether the fracture is partial or complete. Additionally, the X-ray method can figure out whether the bone shifted away from the original location and if the fracture has led to the bone divide into several parts. After assessing those aspects, a doctor can decide on how to cure the fracture relevantly;\n

\n \u00b7\n Urinary tract conditions.\n

\n One more commentary to the question \u201cwhere to use X-rays\u201d is to look into a certain body organ for troubles. When doctors mean intravenous pyelogram, the procedure presupposes injecting a specific contrast substance into the body before they conduct the X-ray to identify problems in kidneys, ureters, or the bladder;\n

\n \u00b7\n Mammography.\n

\n Finally, a mammogram is one more healthcare procedure when X-rays are implemented. The process is requested for a female that desires to get tested for fishy growths in the breast. The diagnosis method called mammogram use x-rays to get pictures of what is located inside the breasts. This practice is widely used to minimize deaths as a result of breast cancer as it enables early diagnosis.\n

\n You see, the only rival to the X-ray approach to treating fractures and other issues is considered\n \n \n \n 3D-printing\n \n (it seems that the last can even lead mankind to\n \n \n \n finding immortality\n \n ).\n
