The study of gross anatomy as demonstrated by radiological methods: Part of Kitty's medical studies involved x-ray anatomy which involved the visualisation of organs and tissues by using x-rays in both living and dead bodies.

Electromagnetic radiation used in diagnostic imaging to view shadows of tissue density in the body.

1. High-energy radiation with waves shorter than those of visible light.

X-rays possess the capabilities of penetrating most substances (to varying extents), of acting on a photographic film or plate (permitting radiography), and of causing a fluorescent screen to give off light (permitting fluoroscopy).

Formerly called a Roentgen ray, in low doses X-rays are used for making images that help to diagnose disease, and in high doses to treat cancer.
