Police in Koshigaya, Saitama Prefecture, have arrested a 30-year-old radiologist on suspicion of taking voyeuristic images after he used his smartphone to film a woman’s breasts while she was having an X-ray.
According to police, Masamichi Hidaka, a radiologist at Koshigaya Municipal Hospital, is accused of filming the breasts of a woman in her 20s during an X-ray, using a smartphone in his coat pocket, on Feb 27, NTV reported.
The woman became suspicious when she saw the camera lens on Hidaka’s phone pointed at her and suspected that it was recording. She reported the incident to a hospital employee after the X-ray was completed.
Police said Hidaka has admitted to the allegation and quoted him as saying, "She was the type of woman I liked, so I wanted to keep a record of it.”
Police are currently investigating whether Hidaka has filmed other woman during X-rays.

Why use your phone when you've got X-ray equipment? A very stupid idiot this one.

Yes, but what was she wearing!?
Seriously tho, that’s really messed up. He’s going to be sued by his employer as well, I bet. It’s very damaging to the hospital and the entire industry.

Poor guy pathetic reasoning! "She was my type of a woman" But is "he the type for her" that could have a good question to ask her before invading her privacy.

Its weird when you think about it. Just a piece of anatomy that for some reason people have decided is all secret. Treating them as special fetishizes them and turns them into objects of interest. If someone wanted to take a picture of my chest, they'd be very welcome to.
This of course is no reason to step over the line and do something like this. His reputation and career are ruined now, and even boobs were probably not worth it. If he was genuinely interested in her, he should have approached her in a more normal way.

He doesn't even need going to Pornhub, he could have just picked up any product on social media check it's few followers and find out the proliferation of pornography is every where I bet sex sells.

Ban porn and you will see a rise in sexual crimes.

Some Japanese men are socially inept when it comes to talking with women.
