Two bolts of Lightning, which represent electricity, forcefulness and speed, are crossed in the shape of the letter X to refer to X-rays, i.e. Radiology in particular. The Book symbolizes the never-ending quest for knowledge, alluding to the contribution of Radiological knowledge in expeditiously alleviating and treating sickness, which is symbolized by the black colour of the chief.
