X-ray radiation is the most dangerous type of radiation emitted from televisions and computer screens. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, flat-screen televisions do not produce this type of radiation, while older CRT televisions are known to produce faint quantities of X-ray radiation. Because of this fact, plasma TVs are supposed to be safer than CRT televisions. If you’re a cautious consumer, you may still be concerned about plasma screen radiation. Even if the screen does not emit X-rays, all types of light, including the visible light spectrum, are radioactive by definition. While most light radiation is harmless, it never hurts to be careful when watching TV. Writer Bio
