Look at the instruments that follow as well as just x-rays. The CAT scan,(sort of x-ray with 3-D imaging) then PET scan,(where positron emission isotopes in sugar gather at the active parts then decay forming x-rays so one can see the parts of the brain in use) other isotopes tracers techniques.
Perhaps NMR imaging also is an offshoot. Cancer treatments sometimes are just x-rays or gamma rays since they are more selective to the faster growing cells.
The one also lead to many other similar techniques.

Before X-rays, you could not heal well a fracture since you had no means to see the broken bones;
The main advantage of X-rays is to permit to see in the inner of the body without opening it. It was a huge progress for diagnostic.
For the therapy, it was also a progress killing some cancerous cells

x rays help doctors diagnose the illness of the patient very easy. before x rays were invented, doctors could only suggest what the patient might have and the suggestions might have been wrong. with x rays though, you just press a button and the answer appears(like magic!)

yes you can say it doesn't require invasive operations to know the problem. but you can have a better proposal if you introduced the magnetic sound reasonance imaging that provides a 3D image of ones interior structure and doesn't have any side effects like X-rays

Non invasive surgery looking for problems. Think what it would be like to be cut open to investigate everything that can be x-rayed
