. A system of instruction in X-ray methods and medical uses of light, hot-air, vibration and high-frequency currents : a pictorial system of teaching by clinical instruction plates with explanatory text : a series of photographic clinics in standard uses of scientific therapeutic apparatus for surgical and medical practitioners : prepared especially for the post-graduate home study of surgeons, general physicians, dentists, dermatologists and specialists in the treatment of chronic diseases, and sanitarium practice . Plate 146.—Measuring Pulmonary Shadows by the Skiameter. Frontal position. Levelthe tube, hold the skiameter in the right hand against the back with the screen in front asshown in the Instruction Plate. The text makes the method clear. This plate also shows thetube in a closet holder which shuts when not in use and protects the tube from dust andbreakage. In the corner is also a mounted open screen of large size, which is emplojed as taughtin the next Plate 147.—Measuring Pulmonary Shadows by the Skiameter. Dorsal position. Holdthe Skiameter over successive areas of the chest while observing the shadows from behind witha large mounted open screen instead of the fluoroscope. Cut does not show the light-screen tohide the tube or the use of the cloth which may be thrown over the head and around the fieldof examination to create a dark chamber for the eyes. Both plates teaching the use of theSkiameter were photographed especially for this work by Dr. A. W. Crane, of Kalamazoo.
