The discovery Of x-rays II one Of
the greatest contributions OF science
to human welfare. The discovery as
now used marks a new era in the
diagnosis Of disease. X-rays were dis.
covered by William Conrad Roentgen
80 years ago. He did not know what
they were and chose the algebraIc
symbol "X" to denote this fact. They
are now frequently spoken Of as
Roentgen rays In honor Of their dis
coverer.
From the first it was foreshadowed
that they might prove Of great value
discoveries. it was several years be.
fore they became Of much practical
use. Now they are considered almost
indispensable and their use has been
extended to nearly every branch OF
medical practice.
x-rays depend for their value upon
their ability to register on q photo
graphic Aim or fuorescent screen the
varying densities of the structures
not depict the organs and tissues OF
the body as they appear when dis
sected. but they do portray with amaz-
ing clearness their comparative densi-
ties. Bones, being much more dense
then the surrounding flesh, intercept
more OF the rays. For this reason
bones are shown more distinctly than
any Of the other structures Of the
body. Hence X,rays are Of great
value In the diagnosis Of diseases and
injuries Of the skeleton and for the
location OF foreign substances which
have a greater, density than the tis-
sues in which they are lodged.
Shows Diseased Tissue.
There are also many diseases Of the
deshy parts Of the entire body which
effect density in such a way as to
make diseased tissue readily recog-
nizable by X-ray examination. The
size. position and movements of the
heart are readily observed, and en-.
largements Of some Of the arteries,
known as aneurysms. can also be
demonstrated. Hardening of the ar
teries which has progressed to a
stage where deposits of lime in them
has occurred can also be shown.
The lungs are soft, spongy struc-
lures, and when normal are quite
translucent to the rays. When they
are diseased, however, they are apt
to become more or less solidified, and
the location, size and other charac-
teristics OF thes< solidified areas can
be seen. The X-rays contribute a
great deal to our knowledge of tu.
berculosis, pneumonia and other dis.
eases Of the lungs. and also Of the

membrane covering the lungs, which
IL tho part affected in pleurisy.
Much information can be obtained
with respect to the alimentary tract
by an X.ray examination. The gullet,
stomach and intestines cannot be seen
practically the same density as the
tissues surrounding them. However.
a harmless chemical, known as
barium sulphate. can be mixed with
food, and this, when introduced into
the stomach and tntestines, can be
readily observed and many organic
diseases thereby discovered.
Diagnose Cancers.
The X.rays are specially helpful in
the diagnosis Of ulcers cancers and
Instructions In the alimentary tract,
and are also OF use In the diagnosis
OF certain kinds of appendicitis. Gall
stones cannot be shown with X.rays
in more than about 25 or 80 per cent
OF the cases in which they are pres
ent. 1t, Is only when they contain
a sufficient amount Of lime to render
them opaque to the rays that they
can be visualiZed. It has recently
been discovered, however, that a GER
tain chemical having the jaw-breaking
name OF sodium tetrabromphenolph-
thalin when administered Is excreted
In the bile and renders 1t OPAQUE to
X.rays. thus making 1t possible to Wis.
ualise the shape, size. position and
conf1guration OF the gall-bladder,. in
much the same manner that the ba-
rum meal visualizes the stomach and
1ntestines. This new method Of exam.
inatton gives promise of being Of con.
siderable value in the diagnosis Of gall,
bladder disease.
Unlike gall-stones, stones In the kid
ney or elsewhere in the urinary tract
usually contain a considerable quan.
ttty or lime and can be demonstrated
by the X-rays in a high percentage Of
cases. Opaque solutions can also be
injected into the urinary tract. thus
making the tract Opaque to X-rays,
and contributing diagnostic informa.
ton comparable to that obtained in
the X-ray examination of the food pas
sages.
Used for Brain Diseases.
x-rays are Of much value in the
diagnosis Of disease Of the mastoid
and Of the other air-containing spaces
In the skull known as the nasal ac-
cessory sinuses. They have added
much practical knowledge relative to
diseases and abnormalities of the teeth
and jaws and are quite as indispensa-
bic to the dentist as they are to the
the diagnosis OF certain diseases Of the
brain. particularly brain tumors. 1t Is
not very often that the tumor itself
can be seen, but its pressure effects
on the skull are frequently recog.
nizable.
While this application Of X.rays to
medical diagnosis Is greatly diversi-
fed, consideration Of their physical
properties makes 1t at once apparent
that their usefulness Is limited. It Is
quite as important for the physician to
know their limitations as 1t Is for him
to recognize their virtues. 1t is also
apparent that a thorough knowledge
Of the changes produced In the body
by disease or injury Is essential for
one to properly interpret what the
X-rays reveal. It Is equally impor.
tant that the results Of the X-ray ex-
animation be considered in connection
with all Of the other features OF the
case In order to arrive at full under
standing OF the patients condition.

AT the same time said the king,
1T Is not our business to expose the
