The Inventions and Industry of the 18th Century

X-rays

X-rays were discovered in 1895 by Wilhelm Konrad von Roentgen (1845-1923). Roentgen was a German physicist who discovered this new form of radiation that allowed him to photograph objects that were hidden behind opaque shields. He even photographed part of his own skeleton. X-rays were soon used as an important diagnostic tool in medicine. Roentgen called these waves "X-radiation" because so little was known about them.

In 1901 Röntgen was awarded the very first Nobel Prize in Physics. Röntgen died on 10 February 1923 from carcinoma of the intestine.
