ABSTRACT
X-ray is one of the strongest radiation therapy that uses high energy shrink tumors and kill cancerous cell. The hard x-rays isotopes has sealed tiny pellets placed in patients body which when decayed naturally gives off radiation that damage the nearby cancer cell and the DNA of the molecules inside cells that carry genetic information. This research which is based on the medical application of x-ray and treatment of cancer is very educative and will go a long way in educating the students that will go into medical field after their graduation.
