A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

During the past few years literature on the Rontgen ray has grown to large proportions. It has led to many and revolutionizing discoveries; most of these have marked a clearer understanding, and consequently the better treatment, of fractures. Still, publications on this subject hitherto have not claimed to be more than tentative sketches or preliminary communications. This book is an effort to encompass in a systematic treatise the important essentials of the publications on this subject and such individual studies and experience as it has fallen to my lot to make. In these studies the Rontgen ray has verified the anatomic findings. It did so by exposing the fractures in their living state. The illustrations in older works were mainly made from the cadaver. The splendid schematic representations that resulted were not portraits from life. The minute arrangement and disarrangement of fragments and splinters, especially in their relations to the joints, were necessarily disarranged by even the most careful dissections. The Rontgen ray depicts these details and all others undisturbed and as they are in life. is with t Jicsc that the surgeon has to deal. Before Rontgen sepoch-making discovery it was just and proper to associate all studies of fractures with those of dislocations. The essential aim of this association necessarily was for purposes of differential diagnosis. Now, however, the student, made familiar with the various types of fracture, has no difficulty in recognizing and appreciating the various forms of dislocation.
