Grid controlled X ray tube?

a grid is a device placed in front of the image receptor which only allows xrays to travel directly through from the tube and prevent xrays which have been "scattered" from passing through to the image. This gives a much clearer resulting image. Grids are generally only used on thicker body parts where scattered xrays are more of an issue


Why do men and women struggle with body image?

The basic reason is that they are unhappy about how they look. Their are very few people who are not affected by this. Body image problems are not helped by the media hyping certain looks and features they define as beautiful or attractive. It is unfortunate that their is such pressure to look a certain way in order to be attractive. This effects people of any age, race, gender etc.. People focus on one or several parts of their body and fixate on that. They make these assumptions about their own bodies that are not true. This does not mean that the emotional pain of not being perfectly beautiful or attractive is not real. It is just that it is undeserved. This body image problem can lead to body image shame. This is where the individual has a distorted view of their body, that does not fit reality. This is my own personal opinion I feel that body image shame can contribute to eating disorders, fixation on plastic surgery in order to become perfect. Excessive working out and steroid use to become perfectly masculine. I have dealt with this unpleasant issue for a large part of my life. I am slowly learning to accept my body. If I could replace I would, but since that is not possible, I change what I can through diet and exercise. I also just find that I don't want to waste so much of my time on something so useless. In the end I choose not to believe the lies of body image problems. It is a choice to believe the lies of body image. I hope anyone who reads this is that do what you can to improve your body, but never believe the lies that since you don't have six pack abs or a large bust, that this makes you imperfect. The choice is yours to make, I hope you make the right one.
