Policy Changed

by the night watchmen is compen-

This represents a change in the

on decisions of the courts.

The Picture OF Health
by Robert A. Arens. Nd. q
MheA Is Y-nnuS
whct Is x-Ray?l

X-ray is q young science in the
medical realm, which has centuries
of recorded history. Although dis
covered in the 18th century, x-ray
more properly belongs among the
scientific developments Of the twen-
tieth. Its use today is more impor.
tant than ever before.
The story starts with an obscure
Bavarian physics professor, Will
helm Conrad Roentgen, in the year
1895. Working in the dark in his
laboratory at the University OF
Wurzburg, he found a mysterious
eight" falling on a fiuorescent
sheet near the shielded electric
tube he was experimenting with.
This energy vibrating beyond the
wave lengths of light is now known
as the Roentgen ray, or, as the
professor first named it, the x-ray.
At first, the x-ray was valuable
mostly for finding broken bones or
foreign bodies. 1t took minutes to
make a picture. As its use irrl-
proved x-ray became field Of spe-
cial study as early as 1905. BY
about 1915, when film replaced the
cumbersome glass plate, medical
specialists called roentgenologists
or radiologists were developing the
use of the x-ray into an important
means of diagnosis.
Progress has continued steadily.
Today in this country there are
1900 radiologists, specializing in
the use of x-rays and the more
newly discovered radium and
radioactive substances. Good x-ray
films can be made not in minutes
but thousandths Of second. When
the radiologist needs to study a
part in motion, moving x-ray
images caught on the microscopic
screen can now be frightened as
much as 200 times over what even
recent equipment would show, and
even recorded on motion picture
film. For medical diagnosis the
radiologist can delineate every
organ of the body except most Of
the liver and the pancreas by one
or another special technique.
Developing along with dag
nostic radiology is the field Of
radiation therapy, where atomic
medicines" are employed. Many
diseases including cancer can be
successfully treated by x-ray or
other radiant energy,
