History of radiology. The history of radiology timeline covers the Origins of Radiology from 1895 when Wilhelm Rontgen first discovered the X-ray, through to the decades of the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s, 1950s and 1960s.
X-Rays Discovered. X-Ray Imaging Predecessor. Rontgen discovered the unknown particles and hence called them x-rays as x typically is an unknown variable. He did so by using a cathode ray tube and covering it in paper so as to block the electrons from escaping. However, the x-rays penetrated the paper and were detected using a phosphorous screen.
Feb 5, 2019 · It all started when Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered X-rays in 1895. After working for weeks in his lab experimenting on the production of ‘strange rays’, which he referred to as ‘X’, he asked his wife Anna Bertha to lend ‘a hand’, the left one to be precise, which he used to produce the first X-ray image. This is now known as ‘Hand mit Ringen’.
Diagnostic X-rays, discovered in 1895 by Wilhelm Roentgen, revolutionised medical diagnostics, allowing non-invasive internal body examinations.
Sep 17, 2015 · But not so long ago, a broken bone, a tumor, or a swallowed object could not be found without cutting a person open. Wilhelm Roentgen, Professor of Physics in Wurzburg, Bavaria, discovered X-rays in 1895—accidentally—while testing whether cathode rays could pass through glass.
Medical radiology has now existed for over a century. It all started in 1895 when Wilhelm Rönt gen discovered x-rays. On 28 December 1895 his manuscript “ On a New Kind of Ray ” was submitted to the Würzburg Physical Medical Institute.
By 1900, only 5 years after its invention, the use of the X-ray machine was widely described as being essential for clinical care, especially for making a diagnosis of foreign bodies and fractures (8).
