X-rays are waves of electromagnetic radiation that are absorbed differently by different tissues. Bones absorb them well because they are dense. A skeletal X-ray specifically looks at your skeletonâwhich is made up of all the bones in your body.
Report Abuse. An x-ray shows bone and dense tissue. It can show large or obvious injuries, but in order to see more specific views of that area, they would have to order a more intense type of radiologic test.n MRI is what is needed for a muscle tear or tendons and ligaments. For instance, a dental x-ray. They can see your jaw bones, teeth and roots of the teeth into the bone. But they can also see an abscess (infection in soft tissue).
