I know it, X-rays, gamma rays and beta particles are all used in medicine to treat internal organs. X - rays are produced by firing electrons at a metal target and gamma rays are emitted by the nucleus of radioactive atoms. Gamma rays are used to kill cancer cells, to sterilise medical equipment and in radioactive tracers.
