Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Röntgen Ray Diagnosis and Therapy Literature upon the application of the Röntgen rays has become very extensive. Many contributions have been made during the last few years, and a number of splendid text-books, like those of Morton, Gocht, Müller, Donath, Williams, Walsh, and Albers-Schoenberg, were written on this fascinating subject. Still none of those standard works, while indispensable for the Rontgen-ray worker, treats the large field from a strictly clinical view-point. To demonstrate how the Rontgen rays can best be utilized in medical and surgical practice has therefore been the author's aim. This desire underlies the continuous allusion to clinical points, and especially the numerous illustrations of therapeutic means. It entailed representation of methods (operative steps, application of splints, etc.), which at first glance may appear foreign to a treatise on the Rontgen rays. But on a closer study it will be evident that these can be understood only on the basis of an exact knowledge of the new science. While these factors are the predominating feature of the book, the technical points are not neglected. They are of so complicated a nature that they require special study, as do the microscope, the laryngoscope, the ophthalmoscope, asepsis, etc. The employment of the apparatus must be mastered and the complicated rationale of the various changes in the tubes thoroughly understood. In the general part the author has tried to furnish a guide for practical work, emphasizing the essential points only. Thus he refrained from discussing the elementary principles of electricity and from describing the large number of apparatus in the market because they are thoroughly advertised and explained by the various firms interested. So much may be said, however, that nearly all of them are useful, as long as they are in good order. As this book is written for physicians, great stress has been also laid on topographic anatomy.

Download or read book The Roentgen Rays in Medicine and Surgery As an Aid in Diagnosis and as a Therapeutic Agent Designed for the Use of Practitioners and Students Clas written by Francis H. Williams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Roentgen Rays in Medicine and Surgery: As an Aid in Diagnosis and as a Therapeutic Agent; Designed for the Use of Practitioners and Students The following pages are rather a report of progress than a final presentation of this growing subject. I planned to include as complete a list as possible of the publications on the medical and surgical uses of the Roentgen rays, but when it was found that the list would add nearly one hundred pages, it was omitted; had I foreseen this, I should have referred in the text to many other important papers. My own contribution is the result of two opportunities. The one, by permission of Professor Charles R. Cross, was in the Rogers Laboratory of Physics of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. With the most cordial and efficient assistance of Messrs. Charles L. Norton and Ralph R. Lawrence, of this department, I obtained my first equipment at a time when many difficulties had to be overcome. From the late Professor Emeritus S. W. Holman, whose rare character and ability made itself felt by all who had the good fortune to be his friends, I have sought and received both advice and assistance during the course of my studies. The other opportunity has been at the Boston City Hospital. To my colleagues on its staff I am indebted for the interest they have shown by referring to me from their services many patients requiring X-ray examination or treatment. In the reproduction of the X-ray photographs there has been no retouching. I wish it were possible for me to express the gratitude I feel toward Dr. William Rollins for his unfailing aid in my efforts to obtain apparatus suitable for these examinations, and particularly for the new and better forms of vacuum tubes that he has devised. It is my privilege to express my obligation to my wife, for her devoted assistance in the preparation of this book.
