. Radiography, X-ray therapeutics and radium therapy . to go into the preparation of these applicators at somelength, for it is on a correct assessment of the activity of these applicators. FlG. 229.—Glass applicators for racliunemanation. RADIUM SALTS 349 and the quantity of the radium they contain that successful treatment isbased. Bearing in mind the great value of radium at present market prices,it is obvious that no clinique can afford to run great risks of loss of radiumby faulty applicators. The French method of putting radium upon linento form toiles is useful and easy of application, but as these toiles cannotbe regarded as in any degree antiseptic or aseptic, they consequentlycannot be used in cases where care in this respect is necessary. The mostuseful form of applicator for superficial conditions is the flat one, which maybe of any desired size and shape. Figures are shown to illustrate radiumapplicators, the radium being incorporated in a varnish and spread over themetal surface of the applicator (see Figs. 238 and 239). The dimensionsmost frequently employed for these forms of applicators are : Square applicators : 2, 3, and 4 cm. applicato
