I had this notion the machine harbored radioactivity and somehow contained a neutered version which doesn't make you glow in the dark whilst at the same time destroys the DNA of cancer cells. Turns out I was wrong. The xray machine creates a beam of photons generated electrically. The beam is shaped by several series of lead panels about 70 mm high and about 5mm thick. These direct the beam to what ever shape the radiologist requires. So its photons, not a radioactive beam of flesh melting rays.
Rode the pushbike today and yesterday. Brilliant, felt strong and fast.
