I had a chest xray 30 years ago as a child for pneumonia. My mother and the tech stayed in the room, were as today they leave the room. While inquiring about differences in xray 30 years ago vs. today, a 69 year old gentleman stated they did foot xrays to purchase school shoes. BLEW MY MIND! (That's a way cool fact IMO)
What's the difference in xrays today vs. 30 years ago? (besides the film) I'd assume that xrays back then used more radiation than they do today, or do they not, but regulations changed because the findings of radiation?
Any other cool facts to contribute?
