Discovery of X-rays
Across
- 4. First to use film in intraoral radiography.
- 5. A beam of energy that has the power to penetrate substances and record image shadows on photographic film.
- 7. Exposed the first dental radiograph in the US using a live patient.
- 8. A powerful tool for physical experiments and examining the body’s interior.
- 9. a high-energy radiation produced by the collision of a beam of electrons with a metal target in an x-ray tube.
- 11. The art and science of making radiographs by the exposure of film to x-rays.
- 15. Introduced the long-cone paralleling technique in 1947.
- 16. W.J. Morton used this as he made the first dental radiograph in the US.
- 18. It is caused by invisible rays originating from the Crookes tube.
- 19. A chemical that glowed in a piece of paper when the tube is covered with black cardboard.
- 20. A beam of thermoelectrons is produced by heating a wire cathode.
Down
- 1. A radiation when an electrical charge is applied to two metal plates inside a glass tube filled with rarefied gas.
- 2. An early version of the cathode ray tubes used in older televisions and monitors.
- 3. Father of Panoramic Radiography
- 6. Any person who positions, exposes, and processes dental x-ray film.
- 10. A picture on film produced by the passage of x-rays through an object or body.
- 12. A terminal of the x-ray tube.
- 13. Roentgen was experimenting with this tube when he discovered the new invisible light.
- 14. Discovered that the cathode rays were streams of charged particles.
- 17. Introduced the bisecting technique in 1904.
