World Radiography Day is celebrated every year on November 8 to mark the discovery of X-rays.
This important development in medicine has changed healthcare by making it possible to identify a wide range of health issues.
The day also honours the hard work of radiographers and radiologists worldwide for their role in diagnosing and treating medical conditions.
Radiography involves using radiation to create images of the body’s tissues, organs, bones and blood vessels, which are essential for patient diagnosis and treatment.
The theme for World Radiography Day 2024, "Radiographers: Seeing the Unseen," emphasizes the essential role radiographer’s play in healthcare by using imaging technology to diagnose and treat medical conditions.
