Can detect a disease/condition that would otherwise go unnoticed* - answer
Discuss the importance of dental images*
1. Roentgen experimented with the production of cathode rays using a:
-vacuum tube
-electrical current-special screens covered with fluorescent material
2. Roentgen observed that cathode rays:
-appeared as colored light passing from one end of the tube to the other
-didn't travel far outside of the tube
-caused fluorescent screens to glow
3. Roentgen concluded the fluorescence must be the result of an unknown ("x") ray
4. Roentgen replaced the fluorescent screens with a photographic plate and realized
shadowed images could be permanently recorded on the plate when it
