radiography

/ˌɹeɪdiˈɑɡɹəfi/ noun B2

making X-ray plates

Word Origin A compound of Latin radius 'ray' and Greek graphein 'to write' — literally 'writing with rays,' using radiation to create images. The radius root gives us radiate, radiation, radio, and ray. The -graphy suffix appears in photography (light writing), biography (life writing), and geography (earth writing). So radiography is a great example of how Latin and Greek roots combine in scientific terms.
