X-rays pass through the human body and can be imaged because the various tissues of the human body have different densities, the absorption of X-rays is not the same, and the rest is not the same. For example, more X-rays absorbed by bones form a high-density shadow on the film, which is off-white. Soft tissues absorb less and form low-density shadows that appear grayish black on the film. In this way, different X-rays form a gray and white image on the film. If high-density shadows appear in areas that should be soft tissue, it is likely that there is a lesion. The appearance of low-density shadows in areas that should be bone tissue is also a manifestation of lesions.
