• W1971749276 abstract "The discovery of a new type of radiation by Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen in 1895 had a profound impact on science in general and on the practice of medicine in particular; not the least of its revolutionary effects was felt in the field of diagnosis. A new page in the history of medicine was written with that epoch-making discovery. The writing on the first pages may have been hesitant and irregular, but here and there, even during the first few years, can be observed broad, bold strokes that were prophetic of the advances that were to come. The opinions as to the usefulness of Röntgen's rays in medical practice among the investigators and authorities in medicine in 1896 varied from extreme skepticism to surprising optimism. Indeed, it is a remarkable and astonishing phenomenon that the possibilities of x-ray diagnosis were so quickly and enthusiastically received. Contemplating the natural and beneficent conservatism which most medical men exhibit toward any new departure in medical science, one may well inquire into the reasons for the relatively rapid manner in which x-rays were applied to medical diagnosis. Within one month after the announcement of the discovery of a penetrating radiation which affected a photographic plate, patients were already being examined by this means. Experiments were being undertaken for improvement of equipment and technic, and efforts were even then under way to provide a means of contrast for demonstration of the soft tissues. It is doubtful whether anywhere in the annals of medical science can such a rapid acceptance of a completely new discovery be found. The reasons for this unprecedented reception, in so brief a time, of a new medium for diagnosis in medicine are not difficult to uncover, and it may be of some interest to review them, for they are equally potent today. First of all, the nature of the discovery was such that the experiments could be readily repeated and the facts demonstrated visually, without delay and without cavil. Fortunately, apparatus such as Röntgen used was readily available all over the world. With a few simple directions it was possible to reproduce immediately the phenomena which he had so clearly described. By its very nature, then, the discovery was demonstrable of proof even to the most skeptical or hypercritical scientific mind. Furthermore, Röntgen had worked out in such detail the salient facts about this new medium that it was relatively simple to understand the potentialities of its application. In the minds of medical men a new horizon was discovered. The possibility of submitting to visual inspection, in the living subject, structures which hitherto could be seen only in the surgery or on the autopsy table was so attractive—yes, even so exciting—that the impulse toward investigation and experimentation was well-nigh irresistible." @default.
