An X-ray is a quick, painless test that produces images of the structures inside your body, particularly your bones. X-ray beams can pass through your body, but they are absorbed in different amounts depending on the density of the material they pass through.
X-rays are most well-known for their ability to see through the skin and reveal images of the bones beneath it.
