Then would x-rays pre-fog film in a way similar to what is sometimes done to increase the speed rating (to put it simply) of film? I believe it is called pre-flashing the film or something like that.

Arhhg! This is only kind of true. YES, x-rays DO expose film. They're
just not particularly good at exposing film well enough to produce a
nice image with the low radiation levels which people prefer to be
exposed to for diagnostic imaging.
