A series of bodies has represented practitioners of radiological medicine in the UK, starting in 1897 with the foundation of the Roentgen Society (named for the physicist Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen). Subsequently, the British Association of Radiologists was founded in 1934.
Franz Exner began his university physics studies at Vienna in 1867. He received a doctorate from the University of Vienna in 1871, after an academic year at Zürich under August Kundt, also working alongside Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, Kundt's student and, especially through the 1879s, regular research assistant/partner.

In 1896, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen wrote a letter to Franz Exner and informed him of his finding - the X-ray. This led to intensive research in this field. [21] A few days later (even before Röntgen had a chance to present his findings in Würzburg), the College of Physicians presented the first radiograph of a shotgun injury.
