OK, so I have been having x-ray's there pretty much every month. A while back, when I was looking at the x-ray, I noticed a rather small maggot like image on the x-ray. After trying to figure it out, I then realised it was actually my manhood.

 

I'm pretty sure that when I used to have x-rays, they would ask you to hold a lead plate over your privates, yet every single time I have gone each month over the last year, this hasn't happened and when I am sitting with the doctor, me the doctor and all the staff in the room are there looking at my manhood as well as the part that they are actually meant to be looking at.

 

Is this a new thing? Is there some reason why they don't tell you to hold a lead plate anymore? Or do they just want to take a peak at everybodies junk?

 

 

 

Just wait till you have to have a Prostate Biopsy, then you may have a case about Medical staff looking at your junk.

I thought all X-ray images were life sized? They're just shadows after all.

 

Hmmmmm, no and I'd have to draw you a diagram to show the effect of magnification and foreshortening due to Object Film Distance and Focus Film Distance, or you could pop off to Uni for 3 years and find out for yourself

Or send me a link. I already have an understanding of X-ray technology as I have a decent collection of old (pre-Coolidge) X-ray tubes and other early X-ray paraphernalia.

 

I just don't know much about modern X-ray technology.

There's even a medical name for it - 'the John Thomas sign'
