Targan,

I can honestly say I'm not shocked. As the unholy love-child of Oliver North and Herr Doktor Mengele, does he need a reason? Maybe his Lord Satan commanded him?

Regardless, most X-Ray machines generate X-Rays using a cathode-ray tube, not radioactive material. Some "hard" X-Ray machines use Cobalt-60 and Iridium-192, primarily for industrial (structural) scanning. There are Cobalt-60 machines are used for radiation therapy in cancer treatment, but these are in the minority.
