It is difficult to determine exactly how many lives have been saved by X-rays, as X-rays play a vital role in diagnosing and treating a wide range of medical conditions. However, it is safe to say that X-rays have saved countless lives since they were first discovered in 1895 by Wilhelm Roentgen. X-rays enable doctors to visualize internal structures of the body, leading to early detection and treatment of various diseases and injuries, ultimately saving lives in the process.
