Abstract
Beginning in the nineteenth century, technology made great inroads into the practice of medicine. During the 1800's, the medical practitioner could avail himself of many new instruments to aid him in his task: the stethoscope, the ophthalmoscope, the laryngoscope, the clinical thermometer, an improved microscope, and devices designed to administer inhalation anaesthesia. The culmination of the nineteenth-century medical technology boom was the development and employment of X-rays during the 1890's.
