X-RAY IN GALL AND KIDNEY STONES 383 An interesting study is presented in a case of stone in the patient was a little girl 10 years old, who had suffered all herlife with her kidneys. Doctor Elbert Dunlap sent her to me for askiagraph, on May 24, 1910. The plate revealed a stone in theright kidney. She was directed to return in a week for anotherexposure. On May 31 the second skiagraph was made, with thesame result as the first. Soon after this she was afflicted withmeasles, and the operation was delayed until June 11, when a stone% inch long and %6 inch wide was found in the kidney and re-moved. Fig. 201 is a skiagraph of the case, and distinctly shows thestone as it lay in the right kidney at the time of the operation. Theillustration is not as good as it should be, but clear enough for di-agnostic purposes. Fig. 202 illustrates a photograph (1) and a skiagraph (2) of.

The photographsimply shows the size and external appearance of the stone, whilethe skiagraph gives some idea of its density. In making the skia-graph of the loose stone, it was exposed to the rays from a mediumvacuum tube for a period of one second. While the picture haslost much of its original detail through the process of reproductionand printing, the difference in density between the central nucleusand the outer coating is plainly seen. Figs. 203 and 204 represent the extremes of kidney stone ski-agraphy. Fig. 203 shows the shadow of a rather large stone in thekidney, and Fig. 204 shows distinctly the shadow of another diff
