Technical Considerations
X-ray photons are formed in events involving electrons and are the mainly form of ionizing electromagnetic radiation used in medical radiography. This radiation is much more energetic than the more familiar types such as radio waves and visible light. Proper production and detection of photons are important in the creation of good radiograms.

Famous quotes containing the word technical:
“When you see something that is technically sweet, you go ahead and do it and you argue about what to do about it only after you have had your technical success. That is the way it was with the atomic bomb.”
—J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904–1967)
