Learning outcomes
After working through the Radiography practice sets you should be able to:
- X-rays & Radiation: The nature of X-rays and how images form.

Sample questions
Real questions taken from the Radiography question bank, shown with the working learners see after answering.
Which imaging method uses ionising radiation to view bones?
- Ultrasound
- X-ray
- MRI
- Endoscopy
Working: X-rays pass through the body and are absorbed differently by tissues, showing bone clearly on film or detector.
Radiation dose to patients should be kept
- as low as reasonably achievable
- as high as possible
- random
- unmeasured
Working: The ALARA principle minimises unnecessary exposure.
X-rays are a form of
- electromagnetic radiation
- sound wave
- water wave
- chemical
Working: X-rays are high-energy electromagnetic waves.
