La radiodensidad está determinada por una estructura ya sea anatómica, o de otra naturaleza (metálica, plástica, líquida, etc.) que detiene en cierta medida el paso de los rayos X hacia el sensor del aparato radiológico, así las distintas imágenes que pueden proyectarse de acuerdo a su radiodensidad pueden ser imágenes radiopacas (se proyectan como imágenes claras o blancas de mayor o menor intensidad, ya que corresponden a estructuras que no permiten el paso continuo de los rayos X o lo han frenado por completo), o imágenes radiolúcidas (son áreas de color negro a gris en distintos grados, debido a que los haces de rayos X atraviesan una estructura sin mayor dificultad por reducida densidad). 1, record 1, Spanish, - radiodensidad
