H.w The 5 X-ray densitiesAirFatSoft Bone Metalfissuenote : X-ray tissue densities: The greatest contrast is found in areas of greatest difference in density ofadjacent structures (red circle).Contrast within the overall image depends on differences in both the density of structures in the body andthe thickness of those structures. The greater the difference in either density or thickness of two adjacentstructures leads to greater contrast between those structures within the image.H.W:Normal value of Intensity of bone, soft tissue, fat, air, metal (stainless steel, titanium alloy)

Two values serve as the basis for the Hounsfield scale of tissue density: air with a HU value of…

The growing bones of child have an epiphyseal plate that forms a synchondrosis between the shaft and end of a long bone. Being less dense than bone, the area of epiphyseal cartilage is seen on this radiograph as the dark epiphyseal gaps located near the ends of the long bones, including the radius, ulna, metacarpal, and phalanx bones.
