Radiography

SWPP Photographic Glossary

Radiography is a technique that uses X-rays, gamma rays, or charged particles to create shadow images on photographic materials. By passing these high-energy rays through objects, radiography can reveal internal structures that are otherwise invisible to the naked eye.

This method is widely applied in medical imaging, such as X-ray examinations, and in industrial research for inspecting materials, detecting flaws, or studying internal components. Its ability to penetrate opaque objects makes radiography an essential tool for diagnostics, quality control, and scientific investigation.
