Answer:
X-rays are a type of radiation that can pass through the body. ... A detector on the other side of the body picks up the X-rays after they've passed through and turns them into an image. Dense parts of your body that X-rays find it more difficult to pass through, such as bone, show up as clear white areas on the image.
Step by Step
How do X rays work step by step?
An X-ray is produced when a negatively charged electrode is heated by electricity and electrons are released, thereby producing energy. That energy is directed toward a metal plate, or anode, at high velocity and an X-ray is produced when the energy collides with the atoms in the metal plate
