Discovery of X rays
April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
During 1870s and 1880s
Conduction of cathode rays through Crookes tube– invented by Sir William Crookes.
Crookes tube—forerunner of modern fluorescent lamps & X rays tubes.

In 1895, Wilhelm Roentgen was working in his lab in Wuzburg Germany.
Completely enclosed his Crookes tube in black photographic paper.
Barium platinocyanide coated plate
The plate glowed.

April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
Intensity of the glow increased as plate was brought closer
Glow—fluorescence
Roentgen named the invisible light-- X light

Development of modern radiology
April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
2 types of X ray examinations
Radiography—uses X ray films
X ray tube is mounted from ceiling on a track
X ray tube can be moved in any direction
Fixed images
![Page 38: Concepts of radiologic science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497f47cb47959212d8b475e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
Fluoroscopy
X ray tube usually located under examination table.
Moving images are provided to radiologist

April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
X ray voltage is measured in kilovolt peak(kVp)
X ray currents are measured in milliamperes(mA)

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
Radiographic intensifying screens—by Micheal Pupin in 1896 to reduce the exposure time.
Double emulsion films in 1904—further reduced the exp. Time.
Cellulose nitrate—substitute for glass plate
Fluoroscope—1898 by Thomas A. Edison
![Page 41: Concepts of radiologic science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497f47cb47959212d8b475e/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
In 1907, H.C.Snook—a high voltage power supply—interrupterless transformer.
In 1913,William Coolidge---hot cathode x ray tube. A vacuum tube that allowed x ray intensity & energy to be selected separately & with accuracy.

Reports of radiation injury
April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
The first x ray fatality– in 1904, Edison’s assistant & friend- Clarence Dally.
Suffered severe X ray burns that eventually resulted in amputataions of both arms.

April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
In coming years—the frequency of injuries increased.
Skin damage, loss of hair and anemia.
Blood disorders; aplastic anemia and leukemia—more in radiologists.
By introduction of Coolidge tube and Snook transf. – reduction in frequency of injuries.

Basic Radiation Protection
April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
After 1910, biologic effects of x rays were scientifically investigated & reported.
X ray workers were routinely investigated.
Provided with personnel radiation monitoring devices.

Radiation protection devices
April 10, 2023concepts of radiological science
Filtration—Al or Cu filters—low energy x rays are absorbed.
Collimation---restricts useful beam to the part of body to be imaged, reduces scatter radiation, improves image contrast.
Intensifying screens—reduce exposure to x rays by more than 95%
![Page 47: Concepts of radiologic science](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497f47cb47959212d8b475e/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Protective apparel—lead impregnated material used to make aprons & gloves
Gonadal shielding—lead impregnated gonadal shields in persons of child bearing age.
Protective barriers--Radiographic control console should be located behind a protective barrier-often lead-lined & a leaded glass window.

Always practice ALARA; keep radiation exposures
As Low As Reasonably Achievable.

The Ten Commandments of Radiation Protection
1. Understand and apply the cardinal principles of radiation control: time, distance, and shielding.
2. Do not allow familiarity to result in false security.
3. Never stand in the primary beam.
4. Always wear protective apparel when not behind a protective barrier.

5. Always wear a radiation monitor and position it outside the protective apron at the collar.
6. Never hold a patient during radiographic examination. Use mechanical restraining devices when possible. Otherwise, have parents or friends hold the patient.
7. The person holding the patient must always wear a protective apron and, if possible, protective gloves.

8. Use gonadal shields on all people of childbearing age when such use will not interfere with the examination.
9. Examination of the pelvis and lower abdomen of a pregnant patient should be avoided whenever possible, especially during the first trimester.
10. Always collimate to the smallest field size appropriate for the examination.
