Noun

X-ray (plural X-rays)

1. Short wavelength electromagnetic radiation usually produced by bombarding a metal target in a vacuum. Used to create images of the internal structure of objects; this is possible because X-rays pass through most objects and can expose photographic film.

   X-rays are light with a wavelength between 0.1 and 10 nm.

2. A radiograph: a photograph made with X-rays.

   "The doctor ordered some X-rays of my injured wrist."

   • 2012 јун 2, Phil McNulty, “England 1-0 Belgium”, in BBC Sport‎^[1] ((Please specify the language of the quote)):

     And this friendly was not without its injury worries, with defender Gary Cahill substituted early on after a nasty, needless push by Dries Mertens that caused him to collide with goalkeeper Joe Hart, an incident that left the Chelsea defender requiring a precautionary X-ray at Wembley.

3. An X-ray machine.
4. The letter X in the ICAO spelling alphabet.
