X-ray in our understanding is a way to find out the condition of bones and joints. But at the beginning of the 20th century, when X-ray was a very popular discovery and was used everywhere, and not only for medical purposes. For example, it was a convenient way to pick up shoes. The buyer came to the shoe salon and was offered to put his foot in a special box. As soon as the picture was ready, the seller could choose the right shoe size or make an order for tailoring individually for each client. This helped to avoid deformity of the leg and choose the most comfortable pair.
But after some time, the X-ray studies went further, and found out that the constant use of this device is harmful to bones. Radiation led to bone pain, bone thinning and joint disease. Now such a "convenient" way to pick up shoes, fortunately, is not needed.
