Abstract
THE war has furthered the progress and development of many industries, but probably no department of science has received greater impetus than that of radiology, using the word in the general sense which it ought usefully to convey, and not in that restricted sense which the medical world has attached to it. The science and art of X-rays have developed enormously during the war, and nothing but good can result from the fact that the general medical practitioner has had his eyes opened to the vista which the X-ravs have revealed. He now realises, as never before, that radiology is a new instrument of attack for him—a veritable handmaiden, whether he be physician or surgeon. The new diploma of radiology which Cambridge and other universities are about to establish is tacit recognition of the importance of X-rays in a medical curriculum. We welcome the suggestion that a chair of radiology should be established at one of the universities in memory of the late sir James Mackenzie Davidson.
