X-Ray imaging involves the transmission of X-Ray beams through a tissue sample. Different tissues absorb X-Rays to varying extents based on their density and composition. This differential absorption creates a contrast that can be captured on X-Ray film or digital detectors, producing an image that reveals the internal structure of the specimen. High-density tissues like bone absorb more X-Rays, appearing white on the image, while less dense tissues like muscles and soft tissues appear in varying shades of gray.
