A tube stand .should lie heavy enough to be hrm and not allow anyvibration of the tube while in use. The parts coming in contact with thetube must be made of an electric non-conducting material; otherwise thecurrent would pass from the tube into them, so puncturing the tube. The uses of the compression diaphragm are: To hold the patientimmovable; to compress the soft parts as when making a picture of thekichiey, for exampk^; to aid tlie operator in (Hrecting the rays tlirough npart at the i^jropcr angle and to cut out the secc^ndary rays given ott fromthe tube.
