Radiation Physics, X-ray safety and protection
... Radiation with sufficiently high energy can ionize atoms. This occurs when an electron is stripped (or "knocked out") from an electron shell of the atom, which leaves the atom with a net positive charge. Because living cells and, more importantly, the DNA in those cells can be damaged by this ioniza ...
