[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shocking that the trade group representing Dentists, who get a nice $30 income shot with every X-Ray, say that they are harmless. Physics: When you bounce high-energy particles off of other particles, it knocks them astray. That is literally what causes the image on the screen. You cannot magically not hit DNA, mitochondria, ribosomes, and remove electrons because then the X-Ray wouldn't work. They are not harmless; they are high energy particles that change the nature of the matter in your body. On average, it's not going to be the thing that kills you, but it probably makes sense to not subject your head to ionizing radiation more often than necessary.[/quote] Oh wait until you find out what a light bulb is.
