no, why would they? tattoos, if they contain ANY metal in the ink don't contain enough to make a difference in things like that.

No. X-rays don't show your skin, they show things like calcium deposits (aka bones) and metal. They MIGHT show your tattoo if it has a metal based ink, which it really should not have
And to the person who said it would rip outyour tattoo if it had metal in it...that only happens if you get an MRI. People swallow things like metal keys all the time and have to get x-rayed to find out where the key is...the key doesn't get ripped out in an x-ray

The Supreme Court addressed this issue in Gomez v. United Health Care Systems, 121 U.S. 912. In a 5-4 decision, the Court held that tattoos on the limbs (arms and legs, including hands, wrists, ankles, and feet) are acceptable, but visible tattoos elsewhere on the body are not.

No they do not. Tattoos are merely on the outter part of the human skin whereas x-rays are taken of the body's inner parts. For example skelleton and organs.

maybe if it was inserted in your bones but there isn't enough metal in the inks to show on an xray

not unless they are led based and then the magnet in the xray machine will actually rip them out

Only if you got it done with cheap, iron based ink, then it will, otherwise, no

no, xrays are searching for mineral deposits, ie: calcium ( as in bones )
