I would expect there to be some subtle effect where the xray happened to hit an outer electron and knock it in a particular way.
For that matter, xray diffraction can tell you all sorts of things about crystal structure. I think you can detect a lot, with enough control of the xrays going in and out.
Do x-rays only interact with close in electrons?
