Watehin* the Stomach.
The applications of the Boentgen rays,
especially In the demain of medicine and
surgery, are of constantly widening use
fulness, although one hears less of them
in the daily press now that the keen edge
of novelty has been blunted by a world's
appreciation. Two fields of exploration
made possible by the fluorescence of
vacuum tubes, ana recently entered, are
of noteworthy promise. One is the ex
amination of lung tissue in the case of con
sumption. Tbe healthy lung gives com
paratively little shadow in the sciagraph,
while the diseased tissue has a much dark
er appearance in the picture. It is thus
possible to ascertain exactly the part affect
ed and to attempt palliative or remedial
treatment accordingly.
The other recent use of the Roentgen
ray of especial value is in observing the
movements of the stomach and ita contents
in the preliminary digestive process. By
mixing subnitmte of bismuth, which is
said to be a harmless powder, with the food,
the movements of the stomach may be
seen by means of the fluoroscope under
suitable conditions. The knowledge thus
gained la of great importance to the physi
ologist and the physician, as many facts
hitherto unknown are revealed.
It is not strange that an English writer
playfully remarked that the X ray may
yet be employed to read the riddle of the
sphinx. It is certain that Professor Roent
gen gave to tbe world a discovery which is
bringing to mortal gaze many of the deep
mysteries of nature.—Western Electrician.
