Anatomy absorbs x-rays based on the density of the structure (subject thickness). Considering your understanding of how black, grey, clear and white tones (radiolucent and radiopaque) are created on an x-ray film, Why do some anatomical structures appear black, and others clear or white? Why do some structures allow more x-rays to pass through and energize the film crystals, while others do not?
