Abstract

The present, sumptuously published and with rare clear reproductions of radiographs, is a guide to radiology, specifically on the roentgen diagnosis of surgical diseases, which differs from other voluminous German and French textbooks-collections, It is distinguished from other German and French textbooks by the fact that its entire presentation is from the point of view of the specialist surgeon-radiologist (Schninz-Zurich), who spared no expense in ensuring that in each chapter the radiological data is compared with the anatomical and surgical data in each section. Despite the surgical bias, this voluminous work presents all roentgenodiagnostics of internal diseases, by wealth of material it is not inferior to the well-known Assmann's textbook. In particular, skeletal diseases take up 458 pages, internal diseases some 618 pages, and the genitourinary apparatus 100 pages. In doing so, each section reflects all the advances of recent years that modern radiology is proud of.
