X-rays can penetrate wood, which can aid in providing images for us to examine. But they cannot in themselves "see".

Yes, X-rays can see through wood. Wood is not dense enough to completely block X-rays, allowing them to pass through and produce an image on the other side. This property makes X-rays useful for inspecting wooden objects for defects or hidden features.

Grid controlled X ray tube?

a grid is a device placed in front of the image receptor which only allows xrays to travel directly through from the tube and prevent xrays which have been "scattered" from passing through to the image.
