X-ray is a common image inspection method. What harm does X-ray radiation do to human body?

X-rays in radiology can kill and destroy biological cells to some extent. Excessive exposure to X-rays will affect physiological functions, lead to chromosomal abnormalities and cause diseases such as cancer. Proper irradiation will not affect human health. The dose of X-ray fluoroscopy and photography is very small, limited to safe dose. X-ray dose is not completely absorbed by human body, most of it penetrates human body, and only a small part is absorbed by human body. The real absorption of the human body is only a few tenths of the dose, so the harm to the human body can be ignored.

At present, the radiation inspection equipment used in major hospitals has long been replaced by digital photography. They can get better image effects with less radiation, so they do less harm to human body. Therefore, you can have a normal X-ray examination with confidence. Of course, too many X-rays will have an impact on the human body, so it is generally not recommended to repeat X-rays unless necessary. Excessive X-rays will lead to hematopoietic dysfunction, affect human gonad function, damage human lens cataracts, and even increase the prevention rate of tumors. Especially if pregnant women receive a lot of X-ray radiation, it will lead to fetal malformation in the stomach.

Long-term exposure may lead to terrible consequences of infertility and fetal malformation. Male sperm may also react to X-rays, leading to infertility. If the number of X-ray examinations of patients increases, especially in a short time, it may lead to terrible consequences of cell cancer. Pregnant women must avoid using it as much as possible, because a large amount of X-ray radiation may cause cancer in pregnant women and babies, which is not conducive to the development and growth of babies.

When people take X-rays, the cells of the body are seriously damaged, so in this case, people's immunity is easy to decline. When the immunity declines, the human body will be attacked by viruses and bacteria, which will lead to various diseases, malignant tumors and cancers. When taking X-rays, we must shoot according to the actual situation, control the shooting times and reduce the harm to the body.
