Army recruits were X‑rayed for chest conditions such as tuberculosis, and in the 1940s mobile X-ray units travelled around the country performing mass civilian screening for the disease. I'm a huge fan of television so I really have found the perfect job, as I've been writing about TV shows, films and interviewing major television, film and sports stars for over 25 years.

Tomographic techniques had been used in X-ray photography since the 1930s, but English electrical engineer Godfrey Hounsfield (1919–2004) was the first to combine an X-ray machine with a computer in 1971. The technology was impressive, particularly when they compared the size of Hilda’s uterus to a normal one. Observing the foetus inside the womb has helped medical practitioners better understand pregnancy and human development. But this isn’t just for patients – the truth is, despite all my years of medical training, I’d never seen the human body quite like I did on this show. Time spent inside the machine was reduced by giving the patients bicycle helmets, each fitted with radio receiver coils.Gynaecologist Mr Stephen Quinn told her it would be wise to operate, though warned that if there was too much blood loss, he might have to remove her uterus entirely. By the 1980s the technology had advanced enough to produce moving images in shades of grey, followed by 3D imaging not long after. Look Inside Your Body is one of the best Usborne books, and a book absolutely every family should own.

By the 1930s, radiology had become a medical specialism and X-ray images were an essential tool in hospitals, the military and public health programmes. The fluorescent image would show the bones of the feet and an outline of the shoes to reveal how well they fitted. It was first observed during the late 1930s, but medical applications were not found for the phenomenon until the 1970s.It has tons of great information and while my kid only truly understands a bit of the information, he loves it and I'm sure we'll continue reading it for many years. This technology is exciting for its potential to give patients a voice, a way for them to engage with their health care without feeling like an outsider. You could link it to the film Inside Out if you want to include work on emotions and feelings for kids who are slightly older.

When a body is placed between an X-ray source and a photographic (or fluoroscopic) film or screen, an image forms. I am already using it to help teach my daughter about how her body works, why certain things are important (sleep, vegetables), and also how to take care of herself (nails keep growing until you cut them, it's important to clean boo-boos). Scanning technologies have various medical functions and provide medical practitioners with different kinds of information.With the help of GPs and surgeons, the show uses 3D imaging technology to show patients exactly what is going wrong in their bodies. When my husband Derek was diagnosed with Covid-19 that fear was made even harder to bear because I didn’t understand what was going on inside his body. Dr Singh says: "Modern medicine has given doctors loads of tools for diagnosis, but until now very few tools to help convey that information to patients. It is a flap book that intrigues children, the excitement that they have to see what’s under the flaps. It is written in an informative, factual but informal way which is beneficial because it is adding to the children’s vocabulary as well as understanding things that are going on with their own bodies in a fun way.
